Report: Vikings Star Running Back Adrian Peterson Charged With 'Reckless Or Negligent Injury To A Child'

Minnesota Vikings star running back Adrian Peterson has reportedly been charged with reckless or negligent injury to a child, according to Mark Berman of Fox 26 in Houston.

The charge has also been reported by Jay Glazer of Fox who adds that Peterson is cooperating and has turned himself into custody.

The charges have been filed in Montgomery County, Texas.

Nothing else is known of the charges. Peterson's attorney declined comment to Fox 26.

At this point, it is unclear if Peterson will be available to play this weekend. According to Glazer, the team is still weighing their options.

Another child of Peterson died in 2013 of head injuries. That child did not live with Peterson and another man has been charged in that death.
