New details have emerged about New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs and the strangulation allegations against him. In a police report obtained by NBC Boston, a woman who worked as Diggs’ personal chef alleged that he slapped and choked her following a salary dispute.
The woman went to the Dedham Police Department on Dec. 16 and said the incident happened on Dec. 2. She alleged that Diggs “entered her unlocked bedroom” after the two had ongoing text messages over money that was owed to her. As they began to discuss this, Diggs allegedly became angry and then “smacked her across the face.” The woman said that she tried to push him away, but Diggs then allegedly “tried to choke her using the crook of his elbow around her neck.”
The police report then said, “At that point, the male threw her onto the bed. He said something to the effect of ‘Thought so.’ And then she told him that she still hasn’t been paid. At that point, the male said ‘Lies’ and walked out of the room.”

The woman said she was hesitant to come forward because of Diggs being in the NFL. She began working for the veteran wide receiver on July 20 of this year, and her employment was “supposed to go through the end of the NFL football season.” After the incident, the woman left the residence but returned to the property on Dec. 9 to get her money.
