Athlete's Lawyer Investigating Alleged Assault

Written by Associated Press (96) on . Posted in State

ATLANTA (AP) - A lawyer for former WNBA star Chamique Holdsclaw says he's investigating an incident that led to assault and weapons charges against the Olympic gold medalist. She is accused of smashing the windows and firing a shot into a car belonging to Jennifer Lacy, who plays for the Tulsa Shock. No one was injured. Lacy told police Holdsclaw was an ex-girlfriend and they were Atlanta Dream teammates in 2009.

After an appearance in Fulton County Magistrate Court Friday, lawyer Patrick Sullivan said the case  hasn't been indicted yet. Sullivan said he's had positive conversations with Lacy and they're trying "to resolve the case in the best way possible." Holdsclaw is out on bond and has been ordered to wear a monitoring device and have no contact with Lacy.
