OKC Center Kendrick Perkins Arrested for Punching Woman in Face

Oklahoma City Thunder center Kendrick Perkins was reportedly arrested–and then released on bond–on Thursday for an incident in July in which he punched a female in the face with a closed fist. 

According to TMZ, “Perkins and his brother-in-law Quincy Alpough were outside Nox nightclub in Harris County, Texas when they got into an altercation with a woman named Mikeeta Cotton,” who “claims she was driving her car in front of the club and got into a fender bender with Alpough’s female cousin.”

A melee ensued and Cotton claims Perkins “punched her brother in the head … and then smacked her in the face with a closed fist.”

Police reportedly “investigated the situation and decided there was enough evidence to charge Perkins with misdemeanor assault. He was released on $1,000 bond.”
