Domestic violence charges against Ray Rice dismissed

WASHINGTON  — Domestic violence charges against Ray Rice have been dismissed after he completed his pretrial intervention, according to ABC News.

Judge Michael Donio confirmed the dismissal in an email to the network.

He said he would sign the dismissal order Thursday.

In September, the NFL suspended Rice indefinitely. The Ravens terminated his contract after video surfaced of him striking his then-fiance in an Atlantic City casino elevator.

It’s the official end of his case.

ABC’a Aaron Katersky reports that it paves the way for Rice to return to professional football.
