Darius Anderson
Darius Anderson, the running back for the Houston Texans was recently arrested over charges of burglary and a supposed intent to commit assault after he broke into his ex-girlfriend’s house last week. On Friday, Anderson broke into the Houston residence and followed her into the bathroom.
The woman was extremely scared and locked herself in the bathroom from where she called the cops. Darius fled the scene once the police were called. He was arrested shortly after. The biggest confusion was the charges the Texans RB was being held for. Initially, it was ‘burglary with intent‘ to rape but this was later changed to ‘burglary with intent to commit assault.’
