TCU defensive end Devonte Fields is under investigation by police after his ex-girlfriend accused him of pointing a gun at her, then punching her in the head at a Fort Worth residence on Sunday.
Fields had allegedly left the premises before authorities arrived, according to a Fort Worth police report.
"Devonte Fields has been listed as a suspect on a domestic disturbance in Fort Worth," confirmed police spokesman Sgt. Raymond Bush. "He has not been arrested."
Police were called to a domestic disturbance around 3:30 a.m. Sunday in the 2700 block of Lubbock Avenue in Fort Worth.
Twenty-year-old Haley Brown, also a TCU student, told police that Fields had been standing outside the bedroom window listening to her talk to a mutual male friend. Brown then said Fields punched out the window of their friend's bedroom from the outside and began screaming at her.
"Haley stated that she thought Devonte was holding a gun in one of his hands and that he pointed it at her," the report states.
"I should blast you!" he yelled at Brown, according to the report.
Fields then went to the front door and was let into the house by their mutual friend's roommate.
"Haley stated that Devonte continued to yell at her and punched her in the face one time with a closed fist," the police report states.
Officers observed Haley's right cheek to be swollen with a small cut under her eye. She refused to go to the hospital and said that she did not want to press charges. Police told her that a report and family violence packet must be filled out.
On Tuesday, TCU released a statement saying Fields had been "separated" from the university pending results of the investigation.
