SANTA CLARA, Calif. – Police say Chicago Bears defensive end Ray McDonald assaulted a woman who was holding a baby and was arrested for domestic violence in Northern California.
Santa Clara police Lt. Kurt Clarke reports that McDonald was arrested at 7 a.m. Monday on suspicion of domestic violence and child endangerment.
It was not immediately known if the woman or the baby were injured.
The Bears did not respond to a message seeking comment Monday. His agent Tom Condon also did not return calls for comment.
In December, the 49ers released McDonald.
Chicago signed McDonald to a one-year contract in March. Late last year, prosecutors announced they had declined to file charges against McDonald in a separate domestic violence probe linked to an August arrest during a party at his Northern California home. A different woman has also accused McDonald of rape.
