Patriots receiver Stefon Diggs charged with felony strangulation

Patriots receiver Stefon Diggs is being charged with felony strangulation or suffocation, on top of misdemeanor assault charges.
The charges stem from an altercation a day after the Patriots won a “Monday Night Football” game against the New York Giants, on Dec. 2, Boston 25 reported, citing court filings.
Diggs’ attorney, Michael DiStefano, appeared remotely in a Massachusetts court Tuesday, asking the judge to impound the police report so that the details could remain sealed. DiStefano told the court, according to Boston 25, that Diggs made a financial offer to settle the dispute with the alleged victim in the case.
The judge took the request under advisement and said she’d issue a ruling soon. The National Football League star denies the charges.
