The investigation began when officers were dispatched to a hospital Saturday around 5:50 p.m. “where a person was reporting a battery,” Las Vegas police said.
“The victim reported being battered at a nightclub located in the 3500 block of South Las Vegas Boulevard,” the release said. Police said their investigation led them to charge Kamara.
He was located Sunday and taken into custody without incident, police said.
Kamara, 26, was booked into the Clark County Detention Center and posted bail of $5,000, according to the Clark County Detention Center’s website.
Kamara is expected to make his initial court appearance Monday afternoon.
Police say the investigation is ongoing and are asking anyone with information to contact their office.
In a statement to CNN, the NFL said, “We are aware of the matter but will decline further comment at this time. “
CNN has reached out to the New Orleans Saints and Kamara’s representative for comment.
It is currently unknown whether Kamara has an attorney. CNN reached out to the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police to inquire about his legal representation.
