Mahomes refuted the account through his attorney.
“We have provided law enforcement with the tools and evidence they need to evaluate the claims against Jackson,” the statement to KCTV5 reads. “Every interaction between people needs to be placed in the proper context. Releasing a short clip of any video does not provide proper context. We have faith in the process and look forward to a swift resolution of the matter.”
In the video released to the media, it does appear that Mahomes grips Vaughn’s head to kiss the woman more than once.

The owner of the restaurant said she realizes that Mahomes was probably intoxicated. However, she said she had warned Mahomes on previous occasions about making advances.
Additionally, Mahomes is also accused of shoving one of the waiters several times out of the private room where he and his entourage were dining. The waiter later told police that Mahomes reeked of marijuana
