Barroway was released on a $2,500 personal recognizance bond Friday. The bond was set at a virtual hearing in front of 9th Judicial District Chief Judge John Neiley. Neiley also granted Barroway’s wife a full protection order.  

According to Pitkin County Deputy District Attorney Tony Hershey Barroway will be allowed to travel, but he is prohibited from consuming alcohol or other substances. And he must have a third-party involved when he and his wife exchange their children. 

According to Barroway’s attorney the husband and wife live in different homes in Arizona.

Barroway is due back in court on April 3. He is being charged with both felony and misdemeanor assaults.  If convicted of the charges, he could face fines, probation, or imprisonment.

The Arizona Coyotes issued two statements regarding the incident, stating that they are working with the league to gather more information and will have an appropriate response after the investigation is complete.

In the last statement: “The National Hockey League is aware of the arrest of Arizona Coyotes’ minority owner Andrew Barroway. Pending further information, he has been suspended indefinitely.”
