Kings' Collison arrested on domestic violence charge

Sacramento Kings point guard Darren Collison was arrested Monday for an alleged domestic violence incident.

"We've been made aware of the situation," the team said in a statement Tuesday. "The Sacramento Kings condemn violence of any kind. We are gathering additional information and once the facts are known we will take the appropriate steps."

The Placer County Sheriff's Office said officers were called to a home in Granite Bay, Calif., on Monday at 1 a.m., after a woman reported she was being assaulted inside the residence.

Deputies found that she had visible injuries, and arrested Collison on a domestic violence charge. He was additionally booked for two misdemeanor warrants, totaling $7,500, for driving with a suspended licence. He has since been released from jail.

Collison, who inked a three-year, $16-million deal with the Kings in 2014, appeared in 74 games for Sacramento this season.
