Niners OLB Green Arrested on Four Charges

A 49′er is in trouble with the law today according to the folks at Pro Football Talk.com. Here is the report:

49′ers outside linebacker Roderick Green was arrested and charged with four misdemeanor charges, including possession of marijuana, unlawfully carrying a weapon, reckless driving and interfering with the duties of a police officer, the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Green allegedly didn’t cooperate with a police officer in his hometown of Brenham, Texas.

According to a police report, Green was pulled over for speeding and refused to roll down a slightly open window. Instead, the window was rolled up, according to a sheriff’s department patrol clerk.

Green was instructed to get out of the truck, which he did, and then he was arrested.

Green, a former Baltimore Ravens draft pick who recorded a dozen tackles and 3 1/2 sacks last season, was released on a personal recognizance bond.

He’s an unrestricted free agent, so this incident obviously doesn’t help his chances with potential NFL employers.

In an unrelated incident where he was the victim of a crime, Green was stabbed in the stomach when he played for the Ravens during an altercation at a bowling alley where he was confronted by a man and chased outside the parking lot. His injuries weren’t serious.
