Citations for careless driving and a seatbelt violation against Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill were dismissed in a Miami-Dade court. The citations were dismissed due to lack of prosecution after the officer who wrote the ticket failed to appear for court. “Where all the internet cops now,” Hill commented.

Police officers detained Hill outside Hard Rock Stadium before the team’s Week 1 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. “I’m told by sources Tyreek Hill was cited for reckless driving as a result of his incident outside the stadium with police. After he was pulled over, he got into a verbal altercation with police. The officer chose to place Hill in handcuffs. He was cited and released after the situation was deescalated,” ESPN NFL reporter Jeff Darlington said.

It’s our belief that Miami-Dade did not want the officers placed under oath about the whole ‘estimation’ of Mr. Hill’s speed and the physical assault that they committed against Mr. Hill.” Stephan Kelly, also part of Hill’s legal team, said: “What we believe is that their failure to appear illustrates what we know to be the truth, that the actions were unnecessary.” Even though the charges were dismissed, Kelly said the case is not over yet. “We do know that we’re not done,” he said. “What we want to do prior to making our decisions and making our moves is, we want a full, complete understanding regarding their history, their record, to see who these officers are.” Tyreek Hill’s careless driving, seatbelt violations dismissed after Miami police officers no-show https://t.co/G5hKrpRWIU pic.twitter.com/nahFOE1BQg — New York Post (@nypost) November 26, 2024 Traffic citations against Dolphins' Tyreek Hill dismissed after officers no-show at hearing https://t.co/wReiAg1Fa2 — The Associated Press (@AP) November 26, 2024 From the New York Post: After a back and forth, Hill was instructed to exit his vehicle before being pulled from his seat and brought to the ground, laying on his stomach as he was placed in handcuffs. He was detained at the time for “driving in a manner in which he was putting himself and others in great risk of danger.” Hill would be issued a citation and released in time for the game, in which he would finish with seven receptions on 12 targets for 130 yards, including an 80-yard touchdown catch, capped off by a handcuff celebration in the end zone. The incident was placed under review on that Sunday, and 27-year Miami-Dade police veteran Danny Torres was put on administrative duties stemming from the ordeal. Hill, who has been playing through a left wrist injury he claims he aggravated during the incident, took to social media on Tuesday to troll those who criticized his role in the ordeal.
