Lions CB Cameron Sutton Wanted on Domestic Violence Charge, Police Say

The Hillsborough County (Fla.) Sheriff’s Office has issued a warrant for the arrest of Detroit Lions cornerback Cameron Sutton, it announced on Wednesday. 

Sutton is wanted on one count of aggravated battery-domestic violence in the town of Lutz, a Tampa suburb. The police were contacted on March 7 regarding a domestic incident involving Sutton and have since made multiple failed attempts to contact him, according to Lions beat reporter Justin Rogers of The Detroit News. 

“We served his warrant on the seventh because of all the evidence that we found there,” sheriff’s office spokesperson Phil Martello told the Detroit Free Press. “Couldn’t find him here in Tampa, pretty sure he fled. We got a couple hits on his license plate [on] license plate readers, but haven’t been able to track him down here, so that’s where we’re at right now.”

Sutton, 29, was a third-round draft pick by the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2017. He signed a three-year, $33 million contract with the Lions last offseason and recorded 65 tackles and one interception in 17 games in 2023.

The Lions have not commented on the situation.
