The Baltimore County Police inquiry related to Baltimore Ravens player Zay Flowers has been “suspended” without any criminal charges, as disclosed in documents released by the department on Tuesday. The investigation, now considered closed, may be reopened if new information emerges, according to a note dated Feb. 16. The report, with redacted identifying details, indicates that Flowers opted not to be interviewed by the police, invoking legal representation.
The documents affirm previous reporting by The Baltimore Sun regarding an alleged victim’s report to Acton, Massachusetts police. The complainant described a “violent domestic incident” in Owings Mills on Jan. 16, involving an “NFL player” and the suspect’s brother allegedly brandishing a firearm. The victim, who reported being “physically assaulted” with multiple bruises, sought information on filing a police report and potential criminal charges.
The Acton Police report, which remains redacted regarding the suspect’s name, identifies the alleged victim’s 911 call on Jan. 16. The caller, sounding distressed, did not disclose an emergency and later indicated that “his agent” was calling during an interview. Loyalty Above All, the agency representing Flowers, did not immediately respond to comments. The Ravens referred to a previous statement, and the NFL is in the “early stages” of reviewing the incident. Despite no criminal charges, Flowers faces potential disciplinary action from the league, per the NFL’s personal conduct policy.
Flowers has experienced disruptions in endorsement deals, including partnerships with Pizza Boli’s and Bath & Body Works. Despite a successful rookie season with the Ravens, setting team records for receptions and receiving yards, he garnered attention for an on-field taunting penalty and a crucial fumble in the AFC title game.
