Buffalo Bills running back LeSean McCoy allegedly was involved in an altercation that left one person with a possible skull fracture at a Philadelphia nightclub. An arrest warrant for McCoy is expected to be issued sometime soon, possibly as early as Tuesday.
Multiple reports say charges will be filed against McCoy and former NFL running back Curtis Brinkley after a fight broke out with a pair of off-duty Philadelphia police officers around 2:45 a.m. Sunday
According to the police report, the dispute started over the purchase of a bottle of champagne.
Philadelphia police said one of the off-duty officers was punched, knocked to the ground, kicked and stomped on by McCoy, Brinkley and two other suspects. The officer suffered a broken nose, broken ribs and other injuries.
The second off-duty officer, who tried to break up the fight, suffered more serious injuries including broken ribs and a possible skull fracture, according to the report.
McCoy played his first six seasons with the Eagles before coach Chip Kelly traded him to Buffalo. Brinkley is a Philadelphia native and played for San Diego and Chicago between 2009 and 2013.
The Buffalo Bills released a statement saying they are aware of the incident and are investigating. They declined further comment.
