SANTA CLARA, Calif. — Former San Francisco 49er defensive tackle Ray McDonald was charged with domestic violence and false imprisonment in connection with allegations he assaulted his ex-fiancee while she held their 2-month-old child, prosecutors said Thursday.
The Santa Clara County district attorney's office said McDonald was scheduled to be arraigned later in the day on those charges and additional charges of child endangerment and violating a court order stemming from the same incident.
A call to McDonald's attorney, Steve Defilippis, was not immediately returned.
Prosecutors said McDonald broke into the woman's bedroom around 4 a.
