I really hate hearing about young black men making bad decisions that could end their career before it even really starts. Sophomore forward Leron Black from Illinois is the most recent to do something that he’s going to regret in the future.
According to Deadspin.com, Black was arrest Thursday night at a Lil Durk show after pulling a knife out on a bouncer. Witnesses say Black pulled out a knife and threatened the club’s security after he and a friend were asked to leave the club.
Black almost got away until passing cops were flagged down by the security outside the club.
“University of Illinois police lieutenant Tom] Geis said the security guard told police that Black and others were inside the club and that security was trying to remove people when “Black became very belligerent and hostile toward the security guard,” Geis said.
“(Black) yelled ‘I don’t have a strap but I’m not afraid to cut somebody,’ ” Geis said. “Then the security guard said he pulled the knife, opened it and put it within 1 to 2 inches of his nose.”
Black was charged with aggravated assault, a Class 4 felony but Black plead not guilty.
