DeMarcus Cousins has arrest warrant issued for domestic violence charge


An arrest warrant has been issued for DeMarcus Cousins in the wake of the NBA star’s ex-girlfriend making some disturbing allegations against him earlier this week.

Cousins’ ex and the mother of his 7-year-old son filed a police report last Friday not long after she said Cousins threatened to kill her during a phone conversation. Police in Mobile, Alabama, confirmed to USA Today on Thursday that “an arrest warrant has been issued” on a misdemeanor domestic violence charge. A charge of third-degree harassing communications is listed on the Mobile municipal court website. No other information was provided.

The mother of Cousins’ 7-year-old son provided an audio recording to TMZ earlier this week that she said featured Cousins threatening to “put a bullet through your f—ing head” after she told him she would not allow the boy to attend Cousins’ wedding in Atlanta.

Cousins married his longtime girlfriend, Morgan Lang, over the weekend. A number of NBA stars were in attendance.

The woman who accused Cousins of threatening to kill her also filed court documents in Alabama seeking a restraining order against the All-Star center. She says he made further threats to kill her “even if he didn’t have to get his hands dirty doing it” and once choked her during a previous dispute.

The NBA announced on Tuesday that it is investigating the allegations against Cousins.
