Former Cleveland Browns quarterback Johnny Manziel turned himself in to Highland Park, Texas police Wednesday and posted a $1,500 bond, his attorney told NBC DFW.​

Manziel grew up near the location of the alleged crime, a Jan. 29 incident with his ex-girlfriend, Colleen Crowley, who claims Manziel hit her after a confrontation. Crowley also said Manziel threatened to kill himself. She later took out a restraining order against the troubled 2012 Heisman Trophy winner, which was granted for two years.  

Manziel was indicted last month by a Dallas County grand jury and charged with misdemeanor assault family violence. The former first-round draft pick, who is currently a free agent, is scheduled to appear in court Thursday morning and could face up to a year in jail and $4,000 in fines.
