Police in Florida have been searching for Detroit Lions cornerback Cameron Sutton for about two weeks after an arrest warrant was issued over his alleged involvement in a domestic violence case.
Sutton is charged with domestic violence by strangulation which is a third-degree felony and is punishable up to five years in prison. The sheriff’s office put out a social media post Wednesday asking for assistance if anyone has seen Sutton.
According to ESPN, who spoke to Phil Martello, a spokesperson for the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office, the police have been unable to locate Sutton since March 7th when the arrest warrant was issued. Another sheriff’s office spokesperson told ESPN there was evidence of wounds on the woman’s body.
“We became aware of the ongoing legal situation involving Cam Sutton this morning,” the Lions said in a statement. “We will continue to monitor the situation and will not have further comment at this time.”
Sutton, a third round pick in the 2017 NFL Draft, played collegiately at Tennessee. He has nine career interceptions.
