NEW YORK (CBS/AP) — Former Philadelphia Phillies All-Star last month in New Jersey in an incident that led to criminal charges against him.
At a news conference Friday in New York, Dykstra told reporters the driver threatened him after Dykstra asked to change the trip’s destination, then locked the car’s doors and sped up so Dykstra couldn’t exit the car. Dykstra said he called 911.

“I was literally in fear of my life,” he said.
Dykstra’s version clashes with that of the driver.
