A woman identified as the fiancée of Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill accused him of hitting their 3-year-old son in an audio recording released by a local television station on Thursday.

In the audio, the woman identified as 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.

The station, KCTV, did not identify who had provided the 11-minute audio but said it had been recorded by Espinal at Dubai International Airport and then given to a friend.
