GRANITE BAY, Calif. (AP) Authorities say Sacramento Kings point guard Darren Collison was arrested on a charge of domestic violence after deputies responded to a report of a woman being assaulted inside a Northern California home.

The Placer County Sheriff's Office said Tuesday 28-year-old Collison was arrested Monday after deputies found the woman visibly injured.

The office says Collison was booked at the Placer County jail in Auburn. He was freed hours after his arrest on $55,000 bail.

Authorities say he also was booked on two misdemeanor bench warrants for driving on a suspended license.

Officials didn't release the name of the woman or any other details.

The Sacramento Kings says the team is aware of the arrest and gathering more information. The team says that once it has all the facts it ''will take appropriate steps.''
