A day after prosecutors declined to bring charges in connection with an investigation of abuse at the home of Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill, a local television station released an audio recording in which his fiancée accused him of hitting their 3-year-old son.

In the audio, Hill’s fiancée, Crystal Espinal, says their son repeatedly said, “Daddy did it.” “He is terrified of you,’’ she says.

Hill responds, “You need to be terrified of me, too,’’ adding an obscenity.

When Hill says he didn’t do anything, Espinal says that “a 3-year-old is not going to lie about what happened to his arm.
