New England Patriots defensive back Willie Andrews was held without bail in Mansfield, Mass., after allegedly pointing a handgun at his girlfriend’s head.
Andrews was arrested Monday after the alleged incident that occurred at about 1 a. m. after he returned home and an argument began between him and his girlfriend, according to Gregg Miliote, director of communications for the Bristol County district attorney’s office.
Andrews, a backup since being drafted by the Patriots in 2006, was charged with illegal possession of a large capacity firearm and assault with a dangerous weapon.
