Dallas Cowboys superstar Ezekiel Elliott had a run-in with the authorities this weekend.
TMZ Sports obtained footage of Elliott getting into an altercation with a security guard at Las Vegas' Electric Daisy Carnival (EDC). In the clip, Elliott is seen having a verbal argument with a woman that is said to be his girlfriend. The video shows the running back walking away from the woman on several occasions before returning to continue the back-and-forth. Staffers eventually got involved to defuse the situation, but the kerfuffle escalated with Elliott pushing a guard over a barrier with his chest.

Once the video became public, Elliott's lawyer Frank Salzano claimed security "overreacted" to a "normal discussion" between him and his girlfriend.
This is not the first time Elliott has had off-field issues. In July 2017, witnesses said that Elliott "attacked" a man that was verbally harassing a woman in Elliott's crew. Police responded but no arrests were made.
