Trial Date Set For Former Viking Scott

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) ― A trial date has been set for former Minnesota Viking Darrion Scott.
  
The trial will begin on July 7 in Hennepin County District Court. Scott is charged with two felonies in connection with the alleged assault of his 2-year-old son last month.
  
The boy's mother says she found him with a dry cleaning bag over his head and Scott holding the bag tight around the boy's neck. Scott said he was playing with the child and wanted to see if the boy could get the bag off his head himself.
  
Scott appeared in court on Friday and remains free on $50,000 bond. He has yet to enter a plea. Lawyers for Scott declined comment.
