Charges Against Celtics Player Dismissed

The domestic violence charges against Boston Celtics forward Jared Sullinger were dropped in Waltham District Court on Monday, according to the Boston Globe.

Sullinger was arrested in August after a dispute with his girlfriend in their Waltham home.

The charges were dropped at the request of Sullinger's girlfriend who told prosecutors she would invoke the 5th amendment against self-incrimination if she were called upon during a hearing, according to the Globe.
