SUNNY ISLES BEACH, Fla. – Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill was involved in a domestic dispute with his wife at his high-rise condominium in Sunny Isles Beach on Monday, according to an incident report obtained by Local 10 News on Wednesday.
Officers with Sunny Isles Beach Police Department responded just before 2 p.m. to the 18000 block of Collins Avenue following a report of an “assault in progress.”
6 p.m. report:
When they arrived, police said they spoke with Hill, his wife, Keeta Hill, and her mother, Alesia Vaccaro.
Vaccaro told officers she had been living with the couple since last November, shortly after the birth of her granddaughter.
She described Hill, 31, as “very aggressive and impulsive,” and said she feared for her daughter’s safety, the report stated.
Authorities said Vacarro called police after claiming that she witnessed Tyreek Hill throw a laptop on the floor.
Video obtained exclusively by Local 10 News Wednesday shows Tyreek Hill holding his 5-month-old daughter while walking on the 35th-floor balcony of his residence, then looking over the edge during a reported argument with his wife.
Keeta Hill told police that she and Tyreek Hill had been arguing more frequently and stated that whenever she gives her opinion on anything they discuss, “he becomes angry and throws objects around,” the report stated.
She said the two had been attending couples therapy, but it was “not working out.”
3 p.m. report:
During the most recent argument, police said she told Tyreek Hill that he wasn’t involved enough with their child. She then said Tyreek Hill became irritated and, “without malice,” grabbed the baby and began walking with her, they wrote.
Keeta Hill also stated that she is “in the process of filing for a divorce,” according to police.
County records show she filed for divorce one day later.
Authorities said Tyreek Hill told officers he had just returned from training and was discussing therapy with his wife when the argument escalated.
Police said he admitted to grabbing the baby, saying, “I have the same rights as a father as her as a mother, and I can take my baby whenever I want.”
Although both Hill and his wife stated the argument never turned physical, officers said they observed a bruise on Keeta Hill’s upper chest.
She told them it may have happened unintentionally when Hill took the baby from her, according to the report. Officers noted the child appeared to be in good health.
Keeta Hill declined to provide a written statement to police.
They said Tyreek Hill left the condo around 2:40 p.m. in the presence of officers and no arrests were made.
Police issued a case card to Keeta Hill, who they said remained at the residence with her mother and child.
Monday’s incident is the latest in a string of off-the-field issues for the Dolphins’ star that date back to last year.
In February 2024, social media influencer Sophie Hall filed a lawsuit in Broward County accusing Tyreek Hill of fracturing her right leg after shoving her during a football drill at his Southwest Ranches mansion last summer.
Hall claims Tyreek Hill “forcefully and purposefully” pushed her during the incident.
Hill was also cited in September 2024 following an altercation with Miami-Dade police during Week 1 of the NFL regular season, but the traffic citations were later dismissed when the charging officers failed to appear in court.
The Dolphins responded to the allegations in a statement released to Local 10 News on Wednesday:
“On Monday, we were informed that the police were called to Tyreek Hill’s home, and after conversations with Tyreek and members of his family, the police departed the residence without further incident and the case was closed. We have since been in communication with Tyreek and the NFL and will have no further comment on the matter.”
