Bridges, 24, faces one felony count of injuring a child’s parent and two felony counts of child abuse under circumstances or conditions likely to cause great bodily injury or death, the Los Angeles District Attorney’s office said in a statement. <\/div>\n

The NBA player allegedly assaulted his girlfriend on or about June 27 and 28 in front of their two children, according to the DA’s statement, which cited a criminal complaint on the matter.<\/p>\n

“Domestic violence creates physical, mental and emotional trauma that has a lasting impact on survivors,” District Attorney George Gasc\u00f3n said. “Children who witness family violence are especially vulnerable and the impact on them is immeasurable. Mr. Bridges will be held accountable for his actions and our Bureau of Victim Services will support the survivors through this difficult process.”<\/p>\n

CNN has reached out to Bridges’ representation for comment.<\/p>\n

The Hornets said the team is aware of the charges. <\/p>\n

“These are very serious charges that we will continue to monitor. As this is a legal matter, we will have no further comment at this time,” the team said in a statement<\/a> posted on Twitter. <\/div>\n
Bridges was initially arrested and charged with a felony on June 29 and was released on a $130,000 bail.<\/div>\n
Two days later, Bridges’ partner, Mychelle Johnson, posted photos on Instagram showing injuries to her face. The photos have since been deleted.<\/div>\n
