Beasley was arrested after pointing a shotgun at a family looking at houses in his neighborhood.
He and his wife Montana Yo was always charged with having weed in the house.
Now they are trying to take their son.
Hennepin County officials want to have the 19-month-old son of Minnesota Timberwolves player Malik Beasley put under court-ordered protection citing the felony weapons and drug charges filed last month against the boy’s parents as well as new evidence of possible maltreatment.
Beasley was charged in District Court with drug possession and threats of violence. Yao, a 23-year-old Instagram model, was charged with a felony drug count.
The child protection petition said police seized from the home a loaded semiautomatic shotgun on an office floor and “accessible to [the boy],” a handgun, a rifle, more than 1 ¾ pounds of marijuana, three notebooks suspected of being drug ledgers, nine dextroamphetamine pills and various firearms supplies.
Police say the shotgun was reported stolen in Denver, the same city where Beasley played for the Nuggets until he was traded to the Timberwolves in February. He averaged 20.7 points in 14 games with the Wolves last season.
Beasley once got into a fight with ex-NFL play Sua Cravens over his wife.
