An 18-year-old woman told a University of Kansas police officer that KU running back Pooka Williams punched her in the stomach and grabbed her by the throat, according to an arrest affidavit filed in Douglas County District Court.
The two-page document, released to The Star on Thursday, revealed further details of Williams’ misdemeanor charge of domestic battery, which stems from an incident between Williams and the alleged victim that took place on Dec. 5.
According to the affidavit, a KU police officer interviewed the 18-year-old alleged victim at around 11:15 a.m. on Dec. 6. The female stated “she was punched in the stomach, as well as grabbed by the throat” by Williams at Stouffer Apartments on campus the previous day.
