Dispatch Audio Reveals ‘Yelling & Screaming’
… During Alleged Attack
Published
A 911 call was made from Josh Jacobs‘ home during the alleged violent attack involving the Packers star … with dispatch telling police she could hear “yelling and screaming” on an open line.
According to newly released dispatch audio, obtained by TMJ 4, officials received not one, but two calls about the incident … one from the scene of the alleged crime, and the other from a neighbor next door.
“Can hear yelling and screaming. Things being thrown,” the dispatcher tells officers, adding, “Possibly a male and female.”

First responders were dispatched after both a woman & a neighbor called for help.

Then, minutes later, the second call.
“The neighbor is calling now saying that her neighbor [police redacted name] was assaulted.”
Police were sent to the scene, but were told by dispatch that the subject, which ended up being the football star, was no longer there, leaving in a Mercedes G-Wagon.
Cops then began to look for Jacobs, 28, and his vehicle … with another transmission revealing authorities saying, “at this point we’ll want that vehicle stopped if you come across it.”
Jacobs was arrested, but it wasn’t until Tuesday … several days after the alleged incident over the weekend.
The Pro Bowl running back was arrested and booked into the Brown County Jail on five charges … battery, criminal damage to property, disorderly conduct, strangulation and suffocation, and intimidation of a victim.
On Wednesday, after spending the night in jail, Jacobs was released from custody … and he hasn’t yet been charged, with prosecutors in the county signalling they want more time to investigate before making a decision.
Meanwhile, the rest of Jacobs’ teammates are at Packers OTAs … but they haven’t been chatty about the distraction involving their star player — the team canceled media availability on Thursday.
Now that Josh is out, it remains to be seen if he’ll pop up at Packers practice.
Stay tuned …
