The trespassing case Jordan Addison had been facing in Florida was dropped by prosecutors on Tuesday.
State officials informed the Vikings star of their decision in a notice of termination of prosecution that was filed in a Hillsborough County court.
A reason for the move was not given, though Addison’s attorney, Brian Pakett, said he and his client were pleased the case is now closed.
“From the very outset of this incident and arrest, Mr. Addison committed no legal wrong doing,” Pakett said in a statement to NFL Network.
“We are thrilled that the truth was finally revealed and this poor man’s name was not besmirched any longer. I am thankful we were able to bring this to light as quickly as possible.”
Addison was hit with a misdemeanor count of trespassing in an occupied structure or conveyance following allegations he repeatedly refused to leave the Jubao Palace Noodle Bar inside the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Tampa, Fla. last week.
Authorities wrote in an incident report that Addison had been asked to get out at around 3:40 a.m. multiple times, but he would not.
The former USC star, 23, ultimately spent several hours in police custody before he bonded out.
Addison’s agent, Tim Younger, told NFL Network on Tuesday Addison will now “prepare for the filing of a civil claim arising from the alleged wrongful arrest.”
Addison played in 14 games for the Vikings this season, logging 610 receiving yards and three touchdowns on 42 receptions.
