The Tuscaloosa Police Department today dropped all charges against Tide cornerback Cyrus Jones in the alleged domestic violence charges pending against him from earlier in the week, citing their reasoning in a prepared statment:
We told you earlier this week that word was that Alabama head coach Nick Saban was preturbed over the situation, and not at Cyrus. It seems Jones found himself in an altercation with a female, and in an attempt to resolve the situation peacefully contacted the authorities himself. But instead of resolve, Jones found himself at the center of headlines and media jabs from all over the country.
