Authorities arrested Tanya Seymour, wife of NFL player and former Lower Richland standout Richard Seymour, sometime Thursday because they say she is connected to an assault at a home on Fontana Drive.



Deputies say the incident began after two victims, who told investigators that they had been invited to the party, were engaged in a verbal altercation with an unknown number of people.

Investigators say the two victims were assaulted by a group of people, sometime after 12:30 a.m. on January 1, and they told deputies the group "jumped" them.

EMS responded to the scene and they determined that one of the victims suffered from a sprained wrist.
