Woman Says Andrews Threatened Her With Gun

A New England Patriots defensive back is accused of pointing a gun at his fiancee's head in Mansfield on Monday after she accused him of cheating on her.

The woman told police that she confronted Willie Andrews, 24, in a bedroom of his apartment on Sunday night, according to the Sun Chronicle. She said that Andrews was waving the gun and that it touched her temple, the newspaper reported.

The woman called 911, and when police arrived, Andrews allowed police to search his car. Police did not find a gun. The woman took her child to a hotel, police said.

Early Monday morning, police saw Andrews talking to the woman in the hotel parking lot. She told police that she was scared because he "threatened to shoot her in the past."

Only if he'd turn that gun on himself.

Pats Cut Andrews loose

The Patriots just announced the release of third-year defensive back Willie Andrews. The news comes on the heels of Andrews second arrest since the Super Bowl loss to the Giants in Febuary.

The defensive back was charged on Monday with allegedly holding a handgun to his fiancee’s head during an argument at his Mansfield apartment. Back in February, Andrews had been arrested in Lowell two days following the Super Bowl and charged with possession of marijuana with intent to distribute.

The 24-year-old was drafted by the Patriots in the seventh round of the 2006 NFL Draft. In two seasons, he totaled one defensive tackle, 23 special teams tackles and returned four kickoffs for 149 yards.

He is being held without bail pending a dangerousness hearing at Attleboro District Court on Thursday.

In other news, the Pats also announced the signing of sixth-round draft choice Bo Ruud. Terms of the agreement were not disclosed. The 23-year-old Ruud, a linebacker, was a three-year starter at Nebraska.
