Chris Johnson Sued over Alleged Assault and Battery in April

Free-agent NFL running back Chris Johnson was served with a lawsuit over the weekend stemming from an alleged assault and battery in April.

According to TMZ Sports, Johnson was notified of the suit while signing autographs at a minor league baseball game in Florida.

Johnson allegedly choked a parking valet in April, and he was charged with misdemeanor battery.

After video surveillance was released Monday, the alleged victim's attorney told TMZ that Johnson became angry when he didn't have his valet ticket.

Johnson allegedly placed the valet in a choke hold when asked to prove that the Porsche he was attempting to take belonged to him.

The 32-year-old Johnson is a three-time Pro Bowler and one-time All-Pro who spent 10 seasons in the NFL with the Tennessee Titans, New York Jets and Arizona Cardinals.

Although he isn't yet retired, Johnson was released by the Cards last season after appearing in just four games.

He has six career 1,000-yard seasons and is one of only seven players to rush for 2,000 or more yards in a single campaign.

Per TMZ, the alleged victim is seeking at least $15,000 due to loss of work and medical expenses.
