MIAMI, FL
Sapp was charged with one count of misdemeanor domestic battery
in the incident early Saturday after a night of partying. He was
released at about 11 a.m. Sunday -- a time he would have been
assisting in the NFL Network's pre-Super Bowl coverage.
The network has pulled Sapp off the air until it investigates
the matter.
Sapp's attorney, Christopher Lyons, says the former NFL star is
taking the matter seriously and apologizes for any distraction from
the Super Bowl. He also asked that fans reserve judgment until all
the facts come out.
