Irving Fryar, the New England Patriots’ wide receiver who has been beset with off-field problems, will fight assault allegations in an upcoming court hearing.
Glenn Hill, 25, of Boston, claims that Fryar assaulted him during a “Sunglasses at Night” party at the Back Bay Hilton May 2, said William Rowerdink, Fryar’s attorney.
Rowerdink said that Hill provoked Fryar by insulting the player’s wife but that friends persuaded Fryar to drop the issue without a fight.
Hill claims he received bruises to the left side of his face as a result of the dispute.
