The last NFL player to be arrest apparently is the next one to be arrested.
Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports that Rams running back Tre Mason failed to appear for a hearing on Monday in Broward County, Florida criminal court. A warrant has now been issued for Mason’s arrest.
Mason had been arrested last month for suspicion of possession of marijuana, reckless driving, failure to register a motor vehicle, and resisting arrest. His arraignment had been set for Monday.
On March 5, police used a stun gun to subdue Mason after he drove away from officers who were trying to pull him over for speeding. When he was finally pulled over, Mason tried to “brace himself” in the car and exhibited “great resistance” to efforts at removing him.
A third-round pick in the 2014 draft, Mason had been expected to report for the start of the offseason program next week.
