I’m already thinking this situation is overblown.

Miami Dolphins superstar wide receiver Tyreek Hill is being investigated by the Miami-Dade Police Department after he allegedly hit a Haulover Marina employee, according to WPLG (ABC Miami). The Miami-Dade Police Department confirmed the news to ESPN.

Hill recently posted an Instagram story that showed him on a boat celebrating Father’s Day.

At around 6:00 p.m. Sunday, Hill got into a disagreement with one of the charter companies’ employees at Haulover Marina, with the confrontation ending in Hill allegedly hitting the employee, according to a tip received by WPLG.

Currently, it’s not known if the man was injured. However, Miami sports radio host Andy Slater reported that Hill slapped the man on the back of the head, but that he declined to press charges against Hill.

I can see this going away pretty quickly.

With it being an ongoing police investigation, I don’t want to get too deep into speculation, but I do want to point out how the guy that Tyreek allegedly slapped did not press charges against him. With that being the case, I see this situation going away with minimal problems and “Cheetah” and the city of Miami will continue prepping for a Super Bowl run.

No issues here … it’s still sunny in South Beach.
