Video in the Aaron Donald case where a man claims to have been punched by the NFL star has been released and seems to show Donald actually trying to break up an assault, according to reporters who’ve analyzed the footage.
An attorney for DeVincent Spriggs, the man who was assaulted, said this week that his client intended to file charges against the Rams defensive tackle, but Donald’s attorney says, “Mr. Spriggs should send Aaron a thank you card,” according to Pittsburgh reporter Andy Sheehan.
WPXI reporter Cara Sapida says the video clearly shows Donald “tried to STOP the fight that injured a man and did not hurt him at all.”
And with that, the case against Aaron Donald in Pittsburgh should be closed, and Spriggs should be moving along and sending a Christmas card to Rams HQ.

and that is why presumed innocence is important
And you, sir, win the interweb for today! Best post I have seen in awhile.
It was proven today that money grabbing, lazy ass, started the fight, Donald was pulled away from him and other people were the ones who punched this ass clown. Donald actually pulls people off of him.
You can never believe a person’s attorney, but clearly he’s telling the truth. Donald not only did not attack him he saved him. But who has the money that situation?
Glad that settles that for Aaron Donald.
Now the question I have is…was that black on black assault because of white supremacy or systemic racism?
Both
Reverted back to jungle behavior IMO.
Follow the money, follow the money, follow the money. Almost always true.
“So a guy helped save my sorry ass but I’m going to sue him because he’s rich. “ Wow, just wow.
Looks like the final scene in an old Tarzan movie.
Do you know where a guy could watch those today? They were awesome!
There’s always gonna be that one guy…ALWAYS
Probably true- Donald saved him. BUT, the video starts with the victim already down and being beaten. I’d like to see the rest of the video to see how the guy ended up on the ground.
