PHOENIX (Reuters) - U.S. women's basketball star Brittney Griner and her fiancee, fellow WNBA player Glory Johnson, have been arrested on disorderly conduct and assault charges after a fight at their Phoenix home, police said.
Griner, who has played with the Phoenix Mercury WNBA team since 2013, and Johnson, who plays for the WNBA's Tulsa Shock, were booked into the Maricopa County Jail in Phoenix on Wednesday and released early on Thursday, authorities said.
Police responding to a 911 call of a fight went to the house the two 24-year-old women share in the city's western suburb of Goodyear on Wednesday afternoon.
