A warrant has been issued for the arrest of Joe Mixon on a complaint of misdemeanor aggravated menacing, according to court records.

"The club is investigating the situation and will not comment further at this time," the Cincinnati Bengals said in a statement.

The warrant states the incident occurred on the intersection of Walnut Street and East Third Street in downtown Cincinnati, one day before the Bengals defeated the Buffalo Bills in the divisional round of the AFC playoffs.

Mixon's agent, Peter Schaffer, said he expects Hamilton County officials to drop the charges Friday morning, stating that it was a rush to judgment.
