The San Diego district attorney will not seek charges against NFL player Shawne Merriman.  The DA said the case is closed due to insufficient evidence. 

Merriman was arrested Sept. 6 after MTV reality star Tila Tequila accused him of choking and physically restraining her.

Merriman released a statement saying he was concerned about Tila Tequila’s safety because she was drunk, and he tried to prevent her from driving home drunk.  He also said paramedics didn’t find any injuries on Tila.  He denies any assault ever took place.

Despite the case being dropped, Tila said she will pursue a civil lawsuit. 

 Tila is a model, singer and reality television personality. 

Her show “A Shot At Love With Tila Tequila” aired on MTV in 2007 and 2008.  Merriman is a linebacker for the San Diego Chargers.
