Misdemeanor charges against Minnesota Vikings offensive lineman Oli Udoh were dismissed Thursday morning, according to attorney Brian Bieber.

Udoh had been charged on October 25 with resisting an officer without violence and disorderly conduct following an incident in South Florida two days earlier during the Vikings' bye week.

In a statement, Bieber said: "We are pleased the case has been dismissed in its entirety. Everyone who knows Oli never believed he committed a crime, or even did anything wrong. The video evidence and eyewitness testimony we presented to the prosecutor made clear that the allegations in the police report were completely fabricated and Oli was unlawfully arrested.
