L.J. CHARGED WITH SIMPLE ASSAULT

A day before his scheduled meeting with Commissioner Roger Goodell, Chiefs running back Larry Johnson has been charged with simple assault arising out of allegations that he spit a drink in a woman’s face at a Kansas City night club. Johnson turned himself in to authorities on Monday, and later was released after posting a $500 bond. He faces a December trial date on separate charges that he shoved a woman at a night club earlier this year. Though neither charge has been resolved, the Commissioner could take action against Johnson under the Personal Conduct Policy, including a multi-game suspension.
