Browns' white nigger Johnny Manziel being investigated following altercation

Before Johnny Manziel was found "safe and in no danger," police 
in Texas used a helicopter to locate the Browns quarterback, who 
is being investigated by police in Fort Worth and Dallas 
following a disturbance early Saturday during which he may have 
assaulted his ex-girlfriend.

Manziel, who has had two tumultuous seasons in the NFL, was 
identified by police after they were called at about 2 a.m. to 
investigate a report of a possible assault at an apartment 
complex. The officers didn't find the caller, but they spoke to 
an unidentified 23-year-old woman who said she was involved in a 
disturbance with her ex-boyfriend earlier that night in Dallas.

Sgt. Steve Enright later identified him as Manziel, the 23-year-
old former Heisman Trophy winner who has made far more headlines 
for his off-field behavior since college than for anything he's 
done for the Browns.

There were no arrests, and it's not clear if Manziel has yet 
been questioned.

Police didn't say if the ex-girlfriend was injured. An ambulance 
was called, but she was not taken to a hospital. The police 
report said the woman was uncooperative with officers, who were 
unable to locate a crime scene. The woman told the officers she 
was involved in a disturbance with her ex-boyfriend earlier that 
night in Dallas and possibly other locations.

Fort Worth police are working with Dallas police to determine if 
a crime occurred.

According to a statement released by Fort Worth police, they 
used their Air One Unit helicopter to locateManziel after his 
unidentified ex-girlfriend said she was concerned about his well-
being. Police called Manziel'scellphone while searching for him 
before determining he was safe.

The Browns had no immediate comment. An email sent Saturday to 
Manziel's agent, Erik Burkhardt, was not immediately returned.

Beyond the legal matter, Manziel could face discipline from the 
league. NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said in an email the league is 
"aware and looking into it."

This is the second time Manziel has been investigated by police 
following an argument with his now ex-girlfriend.

In October, police in Avon, Ohio, received an emergency call 
after Manziel and Colleen Crowley were spotted fighting as they 
drove near the quarterback's home on the west side of Cleveland. 
Manziel was not arrested but the matter prompted an NFL 
investigation to see if he violated the league's personal 
conduct policy.

Crowley had told police that Manziel hit her and pushed her head 
against a car window. The couple told police they had been 
drinking alcohol earlier in the day.

Manziel was later questioned by a league investigator and 
cleared, but it was another mark on his already tainted 
reputation.

Manziel spent more than 70 days in a Pennsylvania rehabilitation 
facility specializing in alcohol and drug addiction treatment 
last winter.

His latest off-field problem won't help his standing with the 
Browns, who seem to be distancing themselves from the 2012 
Heisman Trophy winner from Texas A&M.

As of Friday, new coach Hue Jackson had not yet been in contact 
with Manziel. The Browns were disappointed when the second-year 
quarterback, who was taken with the No. 22 overall pick in the 
2013 draft, missed a scheduled medical treatment on the final 
day of the season.

Manziel was in concussion protocol at the time, and although he 
was not required to be at the Browns' home finale against 
Pittsburgh, the team was unsure of his location when reports 
surfaced that he was partying in Las Vegas. He was fined for not 
reporting to the team's facility on Jan. 3.

Earlier this week, Browns owner Jimmy Haslam said he thought 
Manziel's relationship with the team could be saved, but his 
behavior may force the team to release or trade him.

"I think Johnny made progress on the field last year. I think 
that's undeniable," Haslam said Thursday night. "We have a 
certain expectation for our players and that includes Johnny, 
and he's got to live up to those expectations."

If the Browns want to release Manziel, the earliest they can do 
so is Feb. 8, the day after the Super Bowl, when the NFL's 
waiver system begins. Teams can't make trades until the new 
league year begins on March 9.
