Denver, CO (SportsNetwork.com) – Denver police have issued an arrest warrant for Broncos safety T.J. Ward concerning an incident earlier this month at a city nightclub.<\/p>\n
Police department spokesman Sonny Jackson told NFL.com that Ward was given a summons for simple assault and disturbing the peace following an altercation at Centerfold, a Denver strip club, on May 9. Jackson said the warrant was issued because Ward had yet to turn himself into police.<\/p>\n
Both charges are misdemeanors.<\/p>\n
“We have been aware of this issue and will continue to review all of the facts,” said the Broncos in a statement released Thursday.<\/p>\n
Ward, a Pro Bowl selection with Cleveland this past season, was signed to a four-year, $23 million contract by the Broncos in March after spending his first four years with the Browns.<\/p>\n
The 27-year-old tallied 112 tackles, two interceptions and 1 1\/2 sacks while starting all 16 games in 2013.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
