Former 49er Ray McDonald charged with domestic violence, child endangerment

Former NFL defensive tackle Ray McDonald has been charged with domestic violence and false imprisonment in connection with an incident with his ex-fiancee while she held their 2-month-old baby, prosecutors said Thursday.

McDonald is scheduled to be arraigned on those charges, as well as charges of child endangerment and violating a court order, later on Thursday, according to the Santa Clara County district attorney's office.

Prosecutors say McDonald assaulted the woman around 4 a.m. May 25 after breaking into her bedroom. He was arrested on suspicion of domestic violence and child endangerment later that day.
