Tigers? Young a no-show at court

By Editor | June 14, 2006 |

Detroit Tigers designated hitter Dmitri Young did not appear at a scheduled court hearing to face a domestic violence charge Tuesday, leading a judge to require his lawyer to provide documentation of the player’s whereabouts by the end of the day.

Young was accused of choking a woman on April 14 at the Townsend Hotel in suburban Detroit. If convicted of the misdemeanor charge, he could face up to 93 days in jail and a $500 fine.
