Sacramento Kings guard Darren Collison was arrested Monday afternoon at a Northern California home and charged with felony domestic violence after deputies found a woman visibly injured at the house.

The Placer County Sheriff's Office said Collison was charged with one count of corporal injury on a spouse as well as two misdemeanor bench warrants for driving a suspended license. 

According to reports, the Kings guard was only in jail for a few hours before being released on $55,000 bail.

In a quick statement about Collison's Memorial Day arrest, the Kings said:

"The Sacramento Kings condemn violence of any kind,'' the team said. "We are gathering additional information and once all facts are known we will take appropriate steps.''

Collison averaged 14 points and 4.3 assists per game in 73 appearances for the Kings last year.
