Former NFL quarterback Mark Rypien was arrested Sunday and charged with fourth-degree assault, according to Luke Thoburn of KHQ.com.
Per that report, authorities responded to a call in northern Spokane, Washington, and when they arrived at the scene, "Rypien was standing in the grass of the Washington Trust Bank there, with his wife lying in the grass. At this time it is not clear why the couple had stopped at the intersection, how police were called to the scene, and who placed the call."
A medical team evaluated his wife, though she did not require further medical treatment.
