Charlotte Hornets forward Miles Bridges has been criminally charged for allegedly assaulting his girlfriend in front of the couple's two young children last month in Los Angeles.
The L.A. County District Attorney's Office said Tuesday that the 24-year-old Bridges has been charged with one count of injuring a child's parent, and two counts of child abuse under circumstances and conditions likely to cause great bodily injury or death. All three charges are felonies.
The charges also include an allegation of causing great bodily injury on the domestic violence victim.
Authorities made two gruesome discoveries Tuesday after a Missouri woman walked into a police station and told officers that she fatally shot one of her children and drowned the other, officials said. Jefferson County Sheriff Dave Marshak said at a news conference that authorities believe both children were killed Tuesday morning.
Strong storms with damaging winds and baseball-sized hail pummeled Texas on Tuesday, leaving more than one million businesses and homes without power as much of the U.S. recovered from severe weather, including tornadoes, that killed at least 24 people in seven states during the Memorial Day holiday weekend.
