Kwame Harris (pictured here as a member of the San Francisco 49ers in 2007) was arrested last August after what was an apparently vicious fight with an ex-boyfriend in the parking lot of a Menlo Park, California restaurant.
The details of the incident weren't noted by the media until Monday, when the San Mateo Daily Journal reported that Harris was due in court for a pretrial hearing related to felony counts of domestic violence and assault. Until this report, Harris was not widely known to be gay.
