State attorney seeks arrest of FSU's Dalvin Cook on battery charge
By Mark Schlabach ESPN
The state attorney's office in Tallahassee will issue a warrant for the arrest of Florida State running back Dalvin Cook, who is accused of punching a 21-year-old woman in the face several times during an argument outside a bar last month.
State attorney Willie Meggs told ESPN.com on Friday that he met with the woman, who is not an FSU student, and a female witness on Friday. Cook's accuser presented Meggs photos of her injuries.
Meggs said Cook, a 19-year-old sophomore from Miami, will be charged with misdemeanor battery.
"I found the women to be very credible," Meggs said.
The alleged incident occurred the night before former Seminoles quarterback De'Andre Johnson punched another woman at a different bar near the FSU campus on June 24. Seminoles coach Jimbo Fisher dismissed Johnson from the team on Monday night, only hours after the state attorney's office released surveillance video showing Johnson punching a 21-year-old FSU student in the face.
The woman who said Cook punched her told ESPN.com that her bottom lip was split and her nose was sore the next day. The woman said she identified Cook as the man who struck her in a photo lineup with two TPD investigators on July 1. She told police she wanted to pursue criminal charges against him.
The woman, who lives in Tallahassee, told ESPN.com that she was approached by a man who was not Cook outside of Clyde's and Costello's shortly after the bar closed on June 23. The woman said the man asked for her phone number, which she refused to give him.
"I told him I had a boyfriend and wasn't interested," said the woman, who spoke to ESPN.com on the condition she not be identified. The woman said the argument became heated, and then Cook punched her in the face several times. Her friend ran to a nearby Tallahassee police car, which wasn't occupied, so the woman called 911.
"They kept telling me they were football players," the woman said. "They kept telling me to Google them. They told me they were football players and they could buy me in two years."
Attempts by ESPN to contact Cook on Thursday were unsuccessful.
A Tallahassee Police Department incident report indicates an officer arrived at Clyde's and Costello's at 2:24 a.m. on June 23. A heavily redacted incident report by TPD on Wednesday was heavily redacted. The incident report said the woman was "intoxicated."
In a statement to ESPN.com, TPD spokesman David Northway said state law "does not allow TPD to provide any details in the active and on-going investigation."
Justin Rossi, 28, of Tallahassee, said he told police that he witnessed the incident. Rossi said he tried to stand between the two women and a group of five to seven men to try to de-escalate the situation. An officer was working security in the parking lot at the time but went inside the bar at closing time, Rossi told ESPN.com.
"When the cop went inside, the girl got punched in the mouth," Rossi said.
Cook, who was named "Mr. Football" in Florida as a senior at Miami Central High School in 2013, was FSU's leading rusher last season, gaining 1,008 yards with eight touchdowns. He ran for a career-high 177 yards with one touchdown in FSU's 37-35 victory over Georgia Tech in the ACC championship game.
On June 26, 2014, Cook was one of three FSU football players questioned in connection with a bb-gun battle that damaged cars and residences at an apartment complex in Tallahassee. The incident prompted a full-scale response from local law enforcement, including the sheriff's department helicopter, based on witnesses initially fearing a more serious shootout. Cook was charged with criminal mischief and given pre-trial intervention in December, which he completed on June 16.
And last July, Cook was named as an "associate" in an aggravated assault case in which police were investigating whether two men brandished a firearm at a neighbor. The incident happened at Cook's apartment, but one of the accusers told "Outside the Lines" he didn't believe the weapon belonged to Cook.

I love that she says (different) as though it would be better if they both punched the same woman.

Because the incident on June 23 occurred outside Clyde's and Costello's, it's unclear whether video footage of the incident existed. Meggs charged Johnson with misdemeanor battery after reviewing video of the incident. Surveillance cameras inside the bar showed Johnson punch the woman in the face while they argued. He pleaded not guilty on July 2 and has a case management conference at Leon County Court on July 22.
Johnson's attorney, Jose Baez, told NBC's "Today" on Tuesday that his client punched the woman after she called him racial epithets and provoked him. Baez said Johnson was not the initial aggressor, but is "owning this" and trying to learn from the experience.
Baez said Johnson accidentally made contact with her while they waited to order at the bar. Baez said Johnson tried to "de-escalate the situation," but the woman "kneed him in the groin area" and "took another swing before he retaliated."

I know I know. Cant a man dream?
Once again FSU Strength & Conditioning coach is on the carpet.
Resulting in the victim receiving a split lip and a sore nose from the multiple blows.
On the good news side, Johnson DID buckle the knees of his victim with only a single punch to the face.
Do Cook and Johnson get Tomahawk stickers on their helmets for this?
