According to ABC23, Arizona Cardinals linebacker Joey Porter will not face charges, the district attorney's office announced on Wednesday.
Porter was arrested early last Saturday morning in a Taco Bell parking lot by the California Highway Patrol, who had stopped one of Porter's friends. When Porter pulled up to the traffic stop, officers detected the smell of alcohol. Porter refused to provide his license to the officer, and when the officer reached in Porter's window to unlock his door, Porter slapped his hand away.
The CHP had recommended Porter be charged with a misdemeanor DUI, resisting arrest, and assault on a police officer.
According to TMZ.com, Porter alleged police brutality against the officer in question, which launched an investigation into that deputy's conduct.
