NEW ORLEANS -- Misdemeanor charges of simple battery and criminal mischief against former New Orleans Saints receiver Michael Thomas were dismissed on Wednesday, according to his attorney Daniel "Becket" Becnel.
The initial charges were related to an incident that occurred in front of Thomas' residence in Kenner, Louisiana, on Nov. 10, 2023. Thomas got into a verbal altercation that night with a local contractor relating to parking issues in the neighborhood. The man accused Thomas of pushing him and throwing a brick at his car windshield.
"We had been working through an outcome like this with the Kenner prosecutor, exchanging videos and seeing if there was any evidence of their allegations," Becnel told ESPN on Wednesday.
