Reuben Foster’s misdemeanor ammunition charge dismissed due to federal injunction

The legal process is going to take some time for San Francisco 49ers linebacker Reuben Foster, but one charge has been dismissed. The Santa Clara District Attorney’s office announced on Monday that the misdemeanor ammunition charge has been dismissed due to an injunction prohibiting enforcement. A San Diego district court judge issued the injunction and it is currently under review by the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals.

This Office charged Reuben Foster with two felony counts stemming from acts of domestic violence that occurred on February 11, 2018. Mr. Foster was also charged with one felony count for possession of an assault weapon and one misdemeanor count for possession of a large capacity ammunition magazine.
