MIAMI (CBS4) – Police in Miami say Broncos defensive star Elvis Dumervil and a friend showed guns under their shirts to people in a car during a dispute in traffic. Dumervil, 28, faces an aggravated assault charge in the case. The incident happened on Saturday night in South Beach, and the police report states that there was an argument between Dumervil and his friend Andy Aguste, 27, and people in another car. Elvis Dumervil, Andy Aguste (credit: Miami Beach Police) Dumervil’s attorney Harvey Steinberg told CBS4′s Vic Lombardi on Sunday that there wasn’t any assault. He said he expects Dumervil to be cleared of any wrongdoing as soon as authorities wrap up their investigation, which could take a couple weeks. Dumervil’s agent Marty Magid said Dumervil is “a great person and a great individual.” “No assault took place,” Magid told CBS4 on Sunday. “I think that once the investigation is complete, no charges will be filed.” Lombardi reports that Dumervil is free to report to Training Camp in 10 days with the Broncos. The only way he would face a suspension would be if he is convicted of a crime, and even if it comes to that it still needs to go through the legal process, and it’s highly doubtful he would miss any games this season. Dumervil is out of jail on bond. The Broncos organization released a statement saying they are aware of the “very serious allegation.” Dumervil was in trouble with the law one other time in the past. He was cited on Oct. 24, 2010, after an incident at the Broncos stadium. Dumervil allegedly forgot his player credential and wasn’t allowed into the stadium despite showing his driver’s license and allegedly got in an altercation with a parking lot attendant. All charges were dismissed in the case before it went to trial. The Broncos are already dealing with a suspension of a high profile player. D.J. Williams is expected the miss the team’s first six games for violating the leagues’ substance abuse policy.
