911 Call Released In Brandon Marshall Stabbing

FORT LAUDERDALE (CBS4) – The Broward County Sheriff's Office has released the 911 call made after Miami Dolphins wide receiver Brandon Marshall was stabbed allegedly by his wife.

The female caller, who is not identified, said, "Please come, it's an emergency." The 911 operator replied: "Come where? Hello?" The caller repeated herself, "Please come, it's an emergency." The operator replied again, "Come to where?"

Then, the line went dead and when the 911 operator tried to call back, there was no answer.

Marshall's wife, Michi Nogami-Marshall, 26, appeared in bond court Saturday charged with aggravated battery with a deadly weapon. She was released on $7,500 bail.

According to a BSO arrest report, Michi Nogami-Marshall stabbed her husband in the abdomen with a kitchen knife Friday evening. The report says she told officers she was defending herself. Marshall had earlier told officers he slipped and fell onto a broken glass vase, but the officers noted that evidence at the couple's home didn't substantiate that claim.

A statement from Brandon Marshall's agent, Kennard McGuire, said Marshall was released from the hospital and will make a full recovery.

The NFL lockout restricts team contact with players. However, Dolphins officials say they were told by the league their team doctor is allowed to see Marshall and consult with Marshall's other doctors.

Marshall married Michi Nogami in Miami last July. They met while both were students at Central Florida. They live in Southwest Ranches, which is near the Dolphins' complex in Davie.

A year ago last week, Marshall, 27, was traded to the Dolphins by the Denver Broncos for two second-round draft picks. In Denver, he caught at least 100 passes three consecutive years and twice made the Pro Bowl. Yet he wore out his welcome, in part because of a long legal record.

In March 2009, Marshall was arrested in Atlanta on misdemeanor battery charges stemming from a fight with Nogami-Marshall, who was his fiancée at the time. The charges were dropped when both refused to testify.

Marshall was also involved in a New Year's Eve fight that led to the 2007 drive-by slaying of Broncos teammate Darrent Williams.
