A Miami-Dade County jury found NFL player Tyreek Hill liable on two counts of battery against his wife Lakeeta Vaccaro, awarding her $500,000 in damages.

A Miami-Dade County jury concluded a battery trial on Tuesday by finding NFL player Tyreek Hill liable on two counts of battery against his wife Lakeeta Vaccaro. The jury awarded Vaccaro $500,000 in compensatory damages for those two incidents.

However, the jury found Hill not liable on five other battery counts, one assault count, one count of intentional emotional distress and one count of continuing domestic violence. Vaccaro's lawyers had also agreed to the dismissal of another battery count before the verdict.

Hill, who had planned to return to the NFL and has been linked with the Kansas City Chiefs, faces an ongoing NFL review under the Personal Conduct Policy. That review will examine the accounts on which Hill was found to have battered Vaccaro.
