Charlotte Hornets star Miles Bridges has been hit with three felony domestic violence charges following an incident in West Los Angeles in late June.
“Domestic violence creates physical, mental and emotional trauma that has a lasting impact on survivors,” Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascon said in a statement.
The baller was also hit with child abuse charges because the alleged violent attack took place in front of their children.
“Children who witness family violence are especially vulnerable and the impact on them is immeasurable. Mr. Bridges will be held accountable for his actions and our Bureau of Victim Services will support the survivors through this difficult process.”
Bridges was arrested and was later released on $130k bond.
His baby mama, Mychelle Johnson, posted the following on social media after the incident:
“I hate that it has come to this but I can’t be silent anymore. I’ve allowed someone to destroy my home, abuse me in every way possible and traumatize our kids for life. I have nothing to prove to the world, but I won’t allow anyone who could do something so horrible to have no remorse and paint a picture of something I’m not. I won’t allow the people around him to continue to silence me and continue to lie to protect this person.”
