Colts linebacker D’Qwell Jackson got off easy Friday with a $1,000 fine for punching a pizza delivery man. The misdemeanor assault charge carried a maximum sentence of six months in jail, the Indianapolis Star reported.

The February 2015 incident stemmed from an argument over a parking space in Washington. Jackson allegedly punched Jose Bonilla-Fuentes on the left side of his face and back of his head and threatened to kill him.
