(Las Vegas) New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara has not contested a misdemeanor charge stemming from a fight last year that left a man unconscious at a Las Vegas nightclub. Vegas, his attorney said Tuesday.
Kamara and three other men faced felony charges for allegedly hitting, kicking and stomping on Darnell Greene son of Houston outside a club elevator. The altercation came a day before the 2022 NFL Pro Bowl.
Kamara played in the Pro Bowl and was arrested after the game.
A felony battery charge carried a five-year sentence. Kamara instead pleaded uncontested for breach of the peace. He will perform community service and pay compensation to the victim.
His attorneys, David Chesnoff, Richard Schonfeld and Drew Findling, released a statement saying, “Alvin is pleased to have this matter behind him and looks forward to a successful NFL season. ยป
Kamara is facing a possible suspension by the NFL.
“We have been closely monitoring all developments in this matter, which remains under review,” the NFL said in a statement.
