Dallas Cowboys running back Joseph Randle will not face charges following a February domestic disturbance in Kansas, the Wichita city attorney’s office said Friday.

The announcement comes two days after the Sedgwick County District Attorney said there was not sufficient evidence to bring felony charges for domestic violence. The case was referred by the Wichita Police Department to the city prosecutor’s office for potential misdemeanor charges against Randle.

The Feb. 3 incident involved Randle and the mother of his child at a hotel in Wichita. Randle’s former girlfriend, Dalia Jacobs, alleged that he pointed a gun at her car, threatened to “blast the vehicle” and punched out one of the vehicle’s windows. Randle was arrested following a 911 call.

“After reviewing the extensive investigation conducted by the Wichita Police Department, including witness interviews and analyzing available evidence, we concluded there is a lack of evidence sufficient to support felony charges against Mr. Randle,” Sedgwick County district attorney Marc Bennett said Wednesday in a statement. “The sufficiency of proof required in a criminal case is proof beyond a reasonable doubt. We find the nature of the available evidence in this instance is insufficient to meet that burden as to felony charges.”

Randle could still face punishment from the NFL under terms of a personal-conduct policy.

Randle has played two seasons for the Cowboys, rushing for 507 yards and five touchdowns in 29 games.
