Former New England Patriots player Patrick Chung was charged Wednesday with assaulting a woman in Massachusetts, CBS Boston reports.
The 34-year-old former safety allegedly hit a woman with an open hand outside of a Milton home before pushing her to the ground, according to CBS Boston. He is also accused of taking her phone and throwing it, leading the screen to shatter.
Paramedics evaluated the woman but determined she did not need treatment, CBS Boston reports.
Ashley White received her earliest combat action badge from the United States Army soon after the first lieutenant arrived in Afghanistan. The silver military award, recognizing soldiers who've been personally engaged by an attacker during conflict, was considered an achievement in and of itself as well as an affirming rite of passage for the newly deployed. White had earned it for using her own body to shield a group of civilian women and children from gunfire that broke out in the midst of her third mission in Kandahar province. All of them survived. She never mentioned the badge to anyone in her battalion.
