- Former Dallas Cowboys star Dez Bryant reported being held at gunpoint by police in front of his daughters on Sunday following a confrontation with two men he accused of reckless driving in Southlake, Texas.

- Bryant received a citation for 'Assault by Contact' and must appear at Southlake Municipal Court on or before Nov. 20, though he criticized the police response as 'very one-sided.'
