SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (AP) — Domestic violence charges have been dropped against Arizona Coyotes minority owner Andrew Barroway, who had been arrested after a dispute with his wife in Colorado last spring.

Barroway issued a statement Tuesday saying the district attorney's office in Pitkin County, Colorado, had decided to dismiss the case against him.

The NHL suspended Barroway indefinitely on March 23 after police said a verbal altercation between him and his wife had turned physical. Barroway says the allegations against him were false.
