Broncos’ linebacker Jonathon Cooper arrested for second time in a week<\/p>\n

According to last week’s arrest affidavit, Cooper got into a fight with his girlfriend who he’s been in an off-and-on again relationship with for about four years. Cooper’s girlfriend was inside his apartment confronting him of cheating allegations, the affidavit reads. <\/p>\n

Both of them were arrested on misdemeanor charges of domestic violence and criminal mischief. Cooper was brought to jail, and the girlfriend was transported to Anschutz Hospital for a forensic nurse exam.<\/p>\n

Cooper appeared from the Douglas County jail Friday morning for his court appearance with his attorney Harvey Steinberg. The district attorney’s office asked the judge for a full no-contact order and that Cooper relinquish firearms.<\/p>\n

Attorney Ron Gainor was also in Douglas County court to represent Cooper’s girlfriend. <\/p>\n

“We are obviously concerned about the contact that happened yesterday that was extensive,” Gainor said.<\/p>\n

A $5,000 PR bond was issued for Cooper, and no GPS monitoring was ordered as originally requested by Gainor. Cooper’s next court appearance was scheduled for July 14 at 9 a.m.<\/p>\n
