Colts TE Drew Ogletree facing domestic violence charges

Indianapolis Colts tight end Drew Ogletree was arrested on felony charges of domestic violence Friday in Hendricks County, Ind.

Ogletree was charged with one count of domestic battery resulting in moderate bodily injury and one count of domestic battery committed in the physical presence of a child younger than 16 years old, per arrest records from the Hendricks County Jail. Bo

"We are aware of the disturbing allegations involving Drew Ogletree," the Colts said in a statement. "The team takes these matters seriously. We have notified the NFL and are in the process of gathering more information. We will have no further comment at this time."

Per the Avon (Ind.) police department, Ogletree's arrest stemmed from an incident on Tuesday evening. Officers were dispatched to a residence to address a domestic disturbance between Ogletree and a woman.

ESPN reported that a probable cause affidavit revealed that the woman was discovered in an upstairs bedroom in pain. The woman told police that the 6-foot-5, 260-pound Ogletree "body slammed" her during an argument. An ambulance was called and the woman was transported to the hospital, police said.

Per the affidavit, Ogletree's young son was in the home at the time of the alleged altercation. An arrest warrant was issued Thursday and Ogletree turned himself in to the Hendricks County Jail on Friday.

Ogletree, 25, spent his entire rookie season in 2022 on injured reserve with a torn ACL. He has nine catches for 147 yards and two touchdowns in 12 games this season.
