Haynesworth Agrees to Settlement in Road Rage Incident

A misdemeanor assault charge against Washington Redskins defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth in Farfax County (VA) has been dismissed, Rich Campbell of The Washington Times reports.

The charge stems from a February 2 road rage incident involving Haynesworth, and the dismissal falls under a statute that allows for the dismissal of charges if the victim acknowledges that he or she received satisfaction from the defendant for his or her injury.

Haynesworth is due back in D.C. Superior Court on July 11 to answer to one count of misdemeanor sexual abuse, a charge brought by a female member of the wait staff at the W Hotel after an incident in February.
