Sun-Sentinel: Jorge Cantu disputes woman’s claim

If it concerns Jorge Cantu...it must be an error.

Third baseman Jorge Cantu and his agent both insist a domestic violence matter won’t interrupt his season.

According to the St. Petersburg Times, Cantu has a Wednesday court date in Pinellas County stemming from a temporary protection order filed against him earlier this week. St. Petersburg resident Nanci Michelle Ikerd alleged she sustained bruises to her left biceps and was verbally threatened Feb. 8.

..."After their investigation we’ll see what comes out,” Cantu said.

Added Steve Canter, Cantu’s agent: “The charges are false. We’re going to respect the legal process here and let it work itself through. He’s not going to miss any time. This won’t interfere with baseball in any way.”
