Haynesworth Has Case Dismissed
Nov 1, 2014 10:25 PM
A northern Virginia judge has dismissed a road-rage assault charge against Redskins defensive lineman Albert Haynesworth after the player reached an agreement with the alleged victim.
A judge can dismiss misdemeanor assaults under a provision called "accord and satisfaction," in which a victim says he has been made whole, according to Virginia law.
Police say the man accused Haynesworth of punching him in a traffic altercation in Reston.
The man told investigators he made a gesture at Haynesworth for tailgating him.
