Former Dallas Cowboys player Dez Bryant, 37, has been accused of punching a teenager and threatening to kill him during a parking lot confrontation in Texas.

Former Dallas Cowboys player Dez Bryant, 37, has been accused of punching 19-year-old Noah Reyes, scratching his phone and threatening to kill him during a confrontation in a Southlake, Texas parking lot on Sunday. The incident occurred after Reyes and his friend Terrance Avery honked and revved their cars on a nearby road. Bryant allegedly followed them to a restaurant and began yelling at them in the car park.

Reyes said Bryant told him: 'You better not park that car and get out or I'll stomp your face into this pavement.' When Reyes got out to put items in his back seat, Bryant allegedly accused him of trying to retrieve a gun. 'He thought I was going in my car to get a gun,' Reyes said. Bryant then returned to his own car, and Reyes alleged Bryant said: 'You going to die today. I'ma shoot you. I'ma kill you.'

Bryant received a Class C misdemeanor citation for assault by contact and was handcuffed by local police at the scene. He is due back in court on 20 November.
