Ex-NFL player denies Ohio golf course assault charges (The Associated Press)

BEDFORD, Ohio (AP) -- A former Cleveland Browns player who had his sentencing delayed in an embezzlement case while he participates in a concussion study has denied charges that he assaulted a man at a golf course over a loud radio.

Cleveland.com reports (http://bit.ly/1QWZoC1 ) Reggie Rucker pleaded not guilty to assault and menacing charges Monday in Bedford.

Highland Hills police say Rucker grabbed another man by the throat and pushed him at a suburban Cleveland golf course.

Police say Rucker asked the group if they had ''any golf etiquette'' and threatened to shoot the man during the April altercation.
