Report: Mizzou defensive end will not be charged for domestic assault
Mizzou defensive end Tre Williams will not be charged with second-degree domestic assault, according to a report by the Missourian.
The report cites Boone County Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Susan Boresi. ABC 17 News reached out to Boresi for independent confirmation, but did not hear back at the time this article was written.
An MU spokesman said Tuesday night nothing has changed in regards to Williams’ status with the team.
The former Rock Bridge Bruin was arrested on Sunday morning on suspicion of second-degree domestic assault.
Williams was in the car with a woman with whom he was in a relationship when the two allegedly got in an argument, Columbia Police Department spokesman Jeff Pitts said. It happened at approximately 1:45 a.m. on Sunday in the 3900 block of S. Providence Road. The victim was driving the car at the time, and she told police Williams became physically aggressive. Officers said there was physical evidence to support the claim.
“We were made aware of the situation yesterday, and Tre was immediately suspended indefinitely from all team activities. We will provide an update if his status changes,” Odom said on Monday.
Williams’ bond was set at $4,500.
Williams is a redshirt sophomore for the Tigers. The former Rock Bridge football standout played in all 12 regular season games for Mizzou, totaling 2.5 sacks and five tackles for loss.
