Texting is more dangers than people think.

Francisco Rodriguez reportedly violated a restraining order by texting his girlfriend whose father he assaulted outside the family area of Citi Field.

On top of the third-degree assault and harassment charges, Rodriguez will face additional charges of criminal contempt for sending the messages.

Authorities said Rodriguez sent his girlfriend 56 text messages from Aug. 19 to Sept 7 apologizing and urging a resolution.
