Darrell Armstrong’s battery trial began in Orlando, Fla., with his attorney admitting the New Orleans Hornet guard struck an officer, but he said it was an accident. But officer Teresa Joyce testified that Armstrong “reacted very violently” outside a nightclub on July 7.

Armstrong is charged with felony battery on an officer and misdemeanor resisting arrest without violence. If convicted, he faces probation to five years in prison.
