NEW YORK (Reuters) - Thabo Sefolosha, a forward for the Atlanta Hawks basketball team, was acquitted on Friday of all charges related to an April confrontation with New York City police outside a nightclub that left him with a broken leg.

Sefolosha, a 31 year old Swiss citizen who missed the rest of the 2014-15 season, was found not guilty by a six person jury on the charges of obstructing governmental administration, disorderly conduct, and resisting arrest.
