Johnny Manziel's agent has just officially cut ties with the embattled QB -- with Erik Burkhardt telling Adam Schefter he feels the relationship has reached the point of no return.

"It is with deep regret that, after several emotional and very personal discussions with his family, his doctors, and my client himself, I have made the decision to terminate my professional relationship with Johnny Manziel."

"Though I will remain a friend and Johnny supporter and he knows I have worked tirelessly to arrange a number of professional options for him to continue to pursue, it has become painfully obvious that his future rests solely in his own hands."

"His family and I have gone to great lengths to outline the steps we feel he must take to get his life in order."

"Accountability is the foundation of any relationship and without it, the function of my work is counterproductive. I truly wish the best for Johnny and sincerely hope he can, and will, find the kind of peace and happiness he deserves."

The move comes one day after cops released a police report which shows Manziel's ex-GF, Colleen Crowley, accused him of striking her several times and threatening to kill them during an argument last weekend.

A massive crane careened to the ground in New York City Friday, killing one person and injuring at least 15 others, and flattening cars and other property.

The crane stretched more than a New York City block. It happened in the TriBeCa area of New York at 8:30 AM, smack in the middle of rush hour.

Authorities fear there may be other casualties buried under the rubble. Emergency responders are searching cars.

BMX bike legend Dave Mirra -- who once had the record for the most X Games medals -- has died of an apparent suicide ... TMZ Sports has learned.

Cops say the 41 year old's body was found in his truck in Greenville, North Carolina Thursday with an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head.

We're told he had been in the area visiting with friends.

Mirra leaves a wife and two kids.

Officials tell TMZ Sports cops are investigating the death.

Earlier Thursday, a photo of Mirra and his wife together appeared on Dave's Instagram account with the caption, "My Rock! Thank god."

Mirra hosted 2 seasons of 'Real World/Road Rules Challenge' on MTV -- and was the namesake of several BMX video games.

Mirra also drove for Subaru rally car racing team.

Dave's good friend and fellow BMX legend T.J. Lavin tells us ... "I just wish he would have called me. I would have jumped on a plane in a second. There's always another way. If anyone needs help, just please get it. I feel sick about this."

The night Johnny Manziel allegedly hit his girlfriend, Colleen Crowley ... one of her Dallas neighbors called 911 to report hearing Colleen's screams.

TMZ Sports obtained the 911 call the woman made, and she calmly says she went outside when she heard Colleen in distress. She says Colleen said her boyfriend had "beat her up."

You win ... you get roasted -- and Thursday, the Golden State Warriors became targets for the comedic stylings of President Barack Obama!!

It's pretty funny -- the entire team arrived to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave to be honored by POTUS ... and Obama delivered zinger after zinger, targeting everyone from Steph Curry to Klay Thompson.

Really, the only person who got some love was Steph's daughter Riley (besides Steve Kerr who got props for being on the Bulls).

Seems Michael Schumacher's health has taken another turn for the worse -- so says his former Ferrari boss who gave a cryptic update about the 7-time Formula One champ.

"I have news and unfortunately it is not good," said Luca di Montezemolo, the former president of Ferrari.

Luca didn't get into specifics when addressing reporters Thursday.

4:54 PM PST -- A rep for Cosby says the the decision reached by the court was wrong, and they will appeal.

Bill Cosby will face trial in his sexual assault case because the judge just rejected his request for a dismissal.

Cosby's lawyer had argued he got a solid promise from the former D.A. in suburban Philadelphia ... that the comedian would NOT be prosecuted for allegedly sexually assaulting Andrea Constand.

Cosby claimed he agreed to sit for a deposition in Constand's civil case ONLY because of the D.A.'s promise, and that depo contained essential information about supplying drugs to women that led to the criminal filing.

Prosecutors had argued the former D.A. had no legal authority to make that secret agreement -- which Cosby and his attorneys never got in writing. The judge agreed and now the Constand case will move forward.

Preliminary hearing is tentatively scheduled to begin in about a month.

The Game's been M.I.A. from a sexual assault case he's facing in Illinois, and as of Monday his absence could cost him millions.

As we previously reported, Priscilla Rainey sued the rapper for $10 million last summer, claiming he had sexually assaulted her on his reality show, "She's Got Game."

Game never answered her complaint, so the judge just entered a default. We're guessing this might finally get Game's attention, since he'll likely have to cough up some cash if he doesn't respond.

Kesha's mom did not engage in a smear campaign against famed producer Dr. Luke -- his lawsuit which claimed that has been dismissed.

A judge in NY State tossed the case on Wednesday. This legal battle's been going on since October 2014, when Luke sued Pebe Sebert, saying she fueled Kesha's anger over her contract with Luke. He also claimed Pebe attempted to extort him if he didn't let Kesha out of the deal.

The judge dismissed the matter for a few reasons -- including jurisdiction issues and because Luke's lawyers couldn't prove Pebe had "control" over Kesha.

However, Luke has a backup plan: He filed a similar suit against Pebe in Tennessee, which is still active.

Bill Cosby looked a little more relieved as he arrived for the second day of the hearing that could see his sexual assault case dismissed.

Cosby's lawyers are arguing the Andrea Constand case should be dismissed because of the deal he made with the former D.A. -- Cosby would sit for a deposition in the case, but only if he were not prosecuted.

The former D.A. testified Tuesday in the courtroom outside Philadelphia -- saying he wasn't happy he didn't have enough evidence to prosecute Cosby, but basically said ... a deal is a deal.

Snoop Dogg's on his way to his Tuesday night gig in San Francisco, and says all his concert gear is safe with him at this moment.

Snoop posted a vid that looks like it was shot in the back of his limo ... saying our story about laptops and other equipment for his show getting stolen wasn't true.

However, our law enforcement sources confirm the driver of the jacked SUV told police the stuff that was swiped was SPECIFICALLY for Snoop's show at the Regency.

Bottom line: It appears Snoop has no idea who the burglary victim was, but at least he's still performing tonight.

2:50 PM PT -- The hearing didn't end. The judge just called it quits for the day and the hearing will pick up tomorrow morning.

10:08 AM PT -- The former D.A. just testified he did indeed make a deal with Cosby that he would not be prosecuted in the Constand case and he says the deal was meant to be binding on his successors. The parties are now in the judge's chambers.

The D.A. also said there were "serious flaws" in the case.

Bill Cosby came to court Tuesday dressed for success ... a successful argument he hopes his lawyers can make to make his criminal sexual assault case go away.

Cosby -- cane in hand -- was gingerly guided into the courthouse by 2 bodyguards.

The comedian's lawyer will argue he got a solid promise from the former D.A. in suburban Philadelphia that he would NOT be prosecuted in the case of Andrea Constand. Based on that promise he sat for a deposition on Constand's civil case where he admitted he had given her 3 half-pills of Benadryl before a 2004 sexual encounter. She says it was assault ... he says it was consensual.

The former D.A. is scheduled to testify on behalf of Cosby ... saying he indeed made the promise not to prosecute.

Stephanie Seymour could get out of her DUI case ... if she hits the books.

The supermodel showed up in a Connecticut court in her finest Jackie O-inspired outfit -- complete with long leather gloves -- and asked the judge to cut her a break.

Seymour told the court she's applied to an alcohol counseling program.

TMZ broke the story, Steph got busted last month after cops say she backed into another car on a highway off-ramp.

Former NBA star Jayson Williams -- the guy who shot and killed his limo driver in 2002 -- was arrested in Upstate NY last week after cops say he drunkenly crashed his Jeep into a utility pole.

Officials say emergency responders were called around 11:30 PM on Jan. 26th to a single car crash -- and found the 47-year-old in his banged up Jeep.

Williams was transported to a local hospital to be treated for injuries -- and was ultimately charged with misdemeanor driving while intoxicated. You can see scrapes on his face in the mug shot.

Williams was released from the hospital a short time later.

Wrestling legend Bret "Hitman" Hart says he's undergoing surgery for prostate cancer -- but vows to defeat "this nemesis once and for all."

The 58-year-old made the announcement on Instagram -- saying, "I beat the odds when I suffered my stroke in 2002, but it is now yet again, that I ... stand unafraid and face the tough road ahead of me."

He continued, "I will wage my fearsome fight against cancer with one shield and one sword carrying my determination and my fury for life, emboldened by all the love that's kept me going this long already."

"My children, grandchildren, and my loving wife Steph have been and will constantly be at my side. I refuse to lose, I will never give in or give up, and I will win this battle or die trying."

The Fort Worth Police Dept. says Johnny Manziel's celebrity status had NOTHING to do with the decision to send a chopper to look for him after an incident with his ex-GF this weekend.

As we previously reported, the FWPD says it used an Air One helicopter unit to search for Manziel -- after Colleen Crowley expressed concern for the QB's well-being.

Now, the FWPD says the actions it took "were no different from any other call."

Corporal Tracey Knight tells TMZ Sports, "The FWPD deploys all useful personnel or tools available to fully investigate any call, especially when there is a concern for the health or safety of a person - as expressed by the complainant in this incident."

Knight adds, "Air One is commonly deployed (weather and call priority permitting) to assist in the search for missing persons."

Cops say they eventually made contact with Manziel and determined he was "safe and in no danger."
