Dallas Cowboys RB Ezekiel Elliot Put In Handcuffs At Music Festival

He was cuffed after shoving a security guard at the Electric Daisy Carnival in Vegas

Dallas Cowboys running back EZEKIEL ELLIOTT was at the Electric Daisy Carnival music festival in Las Vegas last weekend, and he was caught on video shoving a security guard to the ground.

He'd been arguing with his girlfriend in the parking lot. And while he didn't put his hands on her, he used his body to block her from walking away several times. 

On the video, they're later seen speaking with event staffers . . . when suddenly Ezekiel confronts one of them and says, "You got something to say!?" He then shoves the guy backward until he falls into a metal gate.

Later, Ezekiel is shown being handcuffed by police, but apparently he was let go.

Ezekiel's lawyer says the whole thing is a misunderstanding. He says the event security, quote, "misconstrued and overreacted to the situation," and the cops only cuffed him as a precautionary measure while they checked things out.

It's worth noting Ezekiel was suspended by the NFL for six games two years ago because of domestic incidents with his ex-girlfriend. The NFL could punish him for this even if he wasn't arrested . . . but for now,itdoesn't seem that serious.
