Seems like a lot of athletes fathers are getting in trouble today. This isn’t as serious as Clowney’s dad being arrested for attempted murder, but still need to be smarter when you are driving around.
40-year-old Antonio Russell was arrested July 31 after being pulled over during a traffic stop.
Officers say the elder Russell was stopped in a white Maserati near the intersection of Dr. WJ Hodge and Chestnut Street for not wearing a seatbelt.
After the stop, the LMPD officer discovered a water bottle filled with red liquid which was later determined to be codeine. Police also say Russell admitted to having marijuana in the vehicle.
The older Russell was hit with three charges and released.
