The woman at the center of domestic-violence charges against San Francisco 49ers linebacker Reuben Foster has recanted her allegation that the former Alabama All-American injured her.
Attorney Stephanie Rickard, representing Elissa Ennis, issued a release that said Ennis' allegation that Foster dragged her by her hair and punched her in the head eight to 10 times, resulting in bruises and a ruptured ear drum in a domestic dispute on Feb. 11, was false.
"Ennis apologizes to everyone that may have been harmed in this case, especially Mr. Foster," Rickard said.
Foster was charged with domestic violence with an allegation that he inflicted great bodily injury, forcefully attempting to prevent a victim from reporting a crime and possession of an assault weapon after the Los Gatos-Monte Sereno Police Department responded to a possible disturbance at a Los Gatos, California, home.
