Prosecutors have decided not to file criminal charges against Kansas City Chiefs star wide receiver Tyreek Hill over allegations of battery involving his 3-year-old son, a district attorney announced Wednesday, because authorities couldn’t determine who committed the alleged act under investigation.
“We are deeply troubled by this situation and are concerned about the health and welfare of the child in question,” said Steve Howe, district attorney in Johnson County, Kansas. “We believe that a crime has occurred. However, the evidence in this case does not conclusively establish who committed this crime.”
Howe declined to detail the specifics of the case, he said during a news conference Wednesday afternoon, because of an ongoing investigation by state child welfare authorities.
