"Titans running back LenDale White was allegedly involved in an altercation during an incident earlier this month in Denver, but on Monday the city's district attorney refused to prosecute the case.

The Denver police department said the case has been reviewed and "is closed.''

"He has not been charged and will not be charged,'' Denver Police Lieutenant Matt Murray said of White. "The entire incident was reviewed, the evidence was reviewed and no charges were filed.''

The NFL and the Titans are both aware of the incident, however.

According to a police document where an aggravated assault offense was reviewed, the incident took place on Feb. 14 in Denver when White and other parties were involved in a verbal altercation after a minor vehicle accident. White then allegedly struck Leslie Joe Hoch, a white male.

"The verbal argument turned physical and (White) began striking and shoving the victim,'' the offense report said.

According to the report, White, listed as an unknown suspect, "began striking the victim with a belt and belt buckle'' before the parties got in their vehicle and fled. Hoch required hospitalization for lacerations, the offense report stated.

Murray said the case was thoroughly investigated by detectives, with numerous interviews and a review of evidence.

"But there is evidence which contradicts these statements,'' Murray said of the report . "The reason the case got dismissed is the evidence contradicts the statements.''

Murray said White fully cooperated with police officials. He said NFL officials expressed an interest n the case.

"We are aware of the incident and have no comment,'' Coach Jeff Fisher said on Monday."
