Dez Bryant wants a full investigation following a Sunday citation for assault

Former Cowboys player Dez Bryant is calling for a comprehensive investigation after being cited for assault on Sunday. In an interview with Jackson Thompson of Outkick, Bryant alleged that a police officer brandished a gun at him in front of his daughters following a dispute with another man. He claimed the man threatened to shoot him and that he warned the individual to use the gun if he intended to do so.

Bryant stated that he took the man's phone and then acknowledged the man threatened to call the police, to which Bryant encouraged him to do so. A responding officer drew his weapon upon arrival at the scene. Bryant's girlfriend arrived with his daughters and began recording the incident. The altercation reportedly stemmed from a traffic incident near Kimball Avenue, where Bryant claimed he was cut off by another driver.

The incident escalated in the parking lot, leading to the alleged assault. No firearms were recovered, but several individuals were temporarily detained. Bryant faces a Class C misdemeanor and is due in court on November 20. The incident's other party, 19-year-old Noah Reyes, plans to sue Bryant for an injury to his hand.
