A Louisiana-Monroe football player and his girlfriend each face domestic abuse charges following a Sunday morning altercation.

Per the arrest report, Kerry Starks, 21, grabbed Abriona Kirt, 26, by the throat with both hands and attempted to drag her out of Hammers nightclub in Monroe by the hair. He also allegedly caused an estimated $400 in property damage by punching out the rear windshield of Kirt’s vehicle with both hands.

Kirt was also placed into custody by Monroe Police after police say she pepper sprayed Starks in the back of the head while he was in handcuffs. Both subjects appeared to be intoxicated, per the report.

Starks was arrested for domestic abuse battery and simple criminal damage to property and Kirt faces one charge of domestic abuse battery. Both were booked at the Ouachita Parish Correctional Center.

ULM is investigating the incident, per associate athletic director for communications and marketing John Lewandowski.

“We were made aware of the situation this morning, and we’re in the process of gathering the facts," Lewandowski said. "We’re also aware of the serious nature of the charges and appropriate disciplinary action will be taken.”

Bond for Starks was set at $3500 on both charges. Kirt's bond is $3000 on the domestic abuse battery charge.

Starks and Kirt have been in a domestic relationship for over two years and live together with their 15-month old son, per the report.

A Marrero-native, Starks signed with ULM in 2016 out of John Ehret High School. He appeared in 12 games last season as a sophomore, making 39 tackles, 11 for a loss, and tied for the team lead with five sacks.
