Colts LB Jackson found guilty in assault case

INDIANAPOLIS -- Indianapolis Colts linebacker D'Qwell Jackson was found guilty Monday of simple assault in Washington, D.C. in a case stemming from a February 2015 fight with a delivery driver.

Simple assault convictions in Washington, D.C. are punishable by a maximum of 180 days in jail. Jackson's sentencing is scheduled for April 6.

Jackson, who just finished his second season with the Colts, was arrested after an incident with pizza delivery driver Jose Bonilla-Fuentes because Bonilla-Fuentes was in Jackson's assigned parking spot at his home. Jackson allegedly punched Bonilla-Fuentes.

"I apologize for adding another distraction for this team," Jackson said in April 2015.
