At least they didn’t shoot him.
It seems though all of this could have been avoided.
Milwaukee police arrested and used a Taser on Milwaukee Bucks player Sterling Brown overnight Thursday.
State arrest records show Brown was arrested on a tentative misdemeanor charge of resisting or obstructing an officer. A law enforcement source also confirmed to the Journal Sentinel that Brown was arrested last night.
Milwaukee Police Department officials said a 22-year-old man was arrested about 2 a.m. Friday and “an electronic control device was deployed” during the incident.
A police spokesman did not name Brown but released the information in response to a Journal Sentinel reporter’s inquiry about an incident involving Brown.
According to the statement:
Police were doing a business check about 2 a.m. Friday at the Walgreens at the corner of S. 26th St. and W. National Ave. when they saw a vehicle parked across two handicap spaces.
Officers spoke with a 22-year-old man about the situation and, during the incident, a Taser was used and the man was arrested.
He is lucky to be alive.
