Bruce Miller Released by 49ers After Arrest Following Alleged Hotel Fight

The San Francisco 49ers announced Monday they released fullback Bruce Miller after authorities in San Francisco arrested him for an alleged assault.

KTVU's Tara Moriarty first reported news of the arrest before the San Francisco Police Department later confirmed it, per Matt Keller of ABC 7.

On Thursday, Matthias Gafni of the Bay Area News Group reported Miller was charged with a total of seven felonies and a misdemeanor. 

According to USA Today, citing the San Francisco district attorney's office, Miller was charged with the following: 

"

The San Francisco district attorney's office has charged Miller with one count of felony assault with a deadly weapon (which, according to multiple reports, was a cane), one count of felony assault with force likely to cause great bodily injury, one felony count of inflicting injury on an elder/dependent adult likely to cause great bodily injury, one felony count of battery with serious bodily injury, two felony counts of criminal threats, one felony count of assault with force likely to cause great bodily injury and one misdemeanor count of battery.

"

Nick Wagoner of ESPN added Miller was being held on a $178,000 bond, which he later posted, per Matt Barrows of the Sacramento Bee.

According to Michelle Toy of KTVU, Miller allegedly attacked a guest of the Fisherman's Wharf Marriott Hotel on Monday. He also allegedly punched the guest's 70-year-old father, who suffered broken bones. Miller had tried to check in to the hotel Sunday but was told it had no available rooms.

KTVU's report stated Miller returned Monday morning and "knocked on one of the guest-room doors," which was occupied by an elderly couple. The couple's son, who was in a neighboring room, told Miller he "had the wrong room." At that point, Miller allegedly attacked him before the guest's father "came to his son's aid" and was attacked as well.

Moriarty shared a video that reveals what appears to be Miller after the alleged altercation: 

NBC Bay Area's Lisa Fernandez, Brendan Weber and Mark Matthews reported Miller was found at a Travelodge across the street where front-desk manager Dinesh Shrestha "found the former fullback in jogging pants and a tank top, alone, vomiting and bleeding from the head outside the hotel in a stairwell. Miller was alone at the time and told Shrestha that 'he was good.' But Shrestha called 911 anyway."

The 49ers selected Miller in the seventh round of the 2011 draft, and he played 77 regular-season games for the team.

In June 2015, he pleaded no contest to a charge of disturbing the peace after he had been arrested in March for an alleged domestic incident.
