Domestic Violence Case Against Soccer Star Hope Solo Dismissed

The domestic violence case against U.S. soccer star Hope Solo, a goalkeeper for the U.S. women's soccer team, was dismissed by a Seattle-area judge on Tuesday, local broadcaster King 5 reported.

Solo had pleaded not guilty to striking family members, her sister and nephew, during a June dispute at her home in the Seattle suburb of Kirkland. She had been slated to stand trial next week, the broadcaster reported.
