Richard Sherman was intoxicated and threatened to kill himself during a confrontation with family members before his arrest early Wednesday in a Seattle suburb, according to a 911 caller who identified herself as the free-agent cornerback’s wife.
Audio of the 911 call, believed to be made by Sherman’s wife, Ashley Moss, was obtained by ABC News and ESPN early Thursday.
The caller described Sherman as being “drunk and belligerent” and said he was “threatening to kill himself.” The caller, who identified herself at one point as “Ashley Sherman,” also said Sherman was “being aggressive,” wrestled with her uncle and “sent text messages to people saying he’s going to hang himself.”
The caller can be heard attempting to prevent Sherman from leaving the residence, saying, “Richard, please stop.” She also told the 911 dispatcher that Sherman drank two bottles of hard alcohol.
