We have a few suggestions as to where Prince Shembo can take a knee.
The 23-year-old Atlanta Falcons linebacker has been charged with aggravated animal cruelty, a felony, after his now ex-girlfriend accused him of killing her dog, a Yorkie named Dior, E! News confirmed Friday.
The Gwinnett County Police Department states that Denicia Williams called the cops on April 19 to report that four days prior, she had taken her dog with her to Shembo's apartment and, after leaving them alone for a time at some point, she returned to find the dog unresponsive. Williams then took Dior to Duluth Animal Hospital, where he died shortly after arrival.
E! News has contacted the Falcons for comment and, per ESPN, the team is aware of the matter and plans on releasing a statement.
Per the Gwinnett Police, a necropsy performed April 21 found that Dior had sustained intensive internal injuries and the cause of death was blunt-force trauma.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution was first to report the news Friday.
