A few hours after the Minnesota Vikings reinstated running back Adrian Peterson, who was indicted in a child injury case in which he allegedly hit his 4-year-old son repeatedly with a tree branch, KHOU in Houston reported there was a separate incident last year in which Peterson allegedly hit his son and left a scar.
KHOU in Houston said Peterson hit a different 4-year-old son last year, leaving a scar on the boy's forehead. That can be used as evidence in the current investigation, the report said.
(Update: TMZ reported, citing sources, that the case "went nowhere" because he did not strike the child, but the child accidentally hit his head on a carseat while Peterson was punishing him.)

The gelding of America continues.
We called it a switch. That one busted me up.
I guess the first thing TMZ can do for all of us is give us a list of his children, and who their mothers are!
My Dad beat be with the buckle end of a belt for stealing. I’ve never stolen anything since (almost 70 years ago). Ya’ll goin arrest him?
OK, bring all his kids in, let’s strip the family nekkid..
We use to do skivvy checks in boot, now they’all probably gonna demand scar checks too.. And in Pre-kindergarden.
It’s gonna be a long season.. Or not. Click!
This is so crazy, all this distracting hysteria about national athletes. It’s like we are being force-fed distractions. Even Fox cannot move on. And Rush needs to talk about it every day! Madness.
If he was a Muslim none of this would be happening.
I bet he abused Toby Gerhart too, its why he left.
Anything But Benghazi!
The pictures of this little boy are heartbreaking. I was on the receiving end of a switch more than once, but my mom never left open wounds. Peterson needs horse whipped.
I grew up in the 50’s when corporal punishment was common both at home and school. One kid’s father shot him for burning the toast. We thought that was kinda harsh.
The National Felons League is living up to its name.
There’s few things more amusing than the American people and their sports “heroes”; sadly for these children, of course.
Rush is just showing how much hypocrisy the NFL is. They denied him ownership because of the moral righteousness of these player’s, owners and league but now not hearing much moral righteousness from them.
Another 4 year old son. Gee, twins.
The war on men continues.
How many four year olds does this guy have? Will more be coming forward?
Take the boy out of the Hood, and give him WAY too much money, and he has money to buy cars, drugs, and chicks, but no money for condoms.
What the hell does the world expect when barely literate boys are given MILLIONS to beat the crap out of people?
NFL is just a bunch of gangs with better colors! (spit)
