A battery case against former NBA player Amar'e Stoudemire related to an alleged incident involving his daughter last month has been dropped, a Florida state's attorney said Tuesday. "The case was dropped due to the failure of the victim to cooperate in the prosecution of the criminal case," the Miami-Dade State Attorney's Office said in a statement.
Former Phoenix Suns, New York Knicks, Dallas Mavericks, and Miami Heat big man Amar'e Stoudemire is facing a charge after he allegedly punched one of his teenage daughters in the jaw until blood started showing on her face. The incident happened on Saturday evening, just hours after Stoudemire received his Master's degree.
Amar'e Stoudemire received his Master's degree yesterday. However, when this achievement was supposed to be the day's highlight, the evening's course was changed quickly.
