NBA star Delonte West arrested on weapons charges

UPPER MARLBORO, Md. — Cleveland Cavaliers guard Delonte West was arrested Thursday after officers pulled him over for speeding on a motorcycle while carrying two loaded handguns and a loaded shotgun in a guitar case.

Prince George's County police spokeswoman Sgt. Michelle Reedy said Friday the Cleveland Cavaliers player was arrested about 10 p.m. Thursday.

Reedy said West was riding a Can-Am Spyder motorcycle north on the Capital Beltway in Upper Marlboro when he cut off an officer, who pulled him over.

Police said a handgun was found in his pocket, another in his pant leg and a shotgun in a guitar case strapped to his back.

Reedy said West "was very cooperative, there were no issues" during the incident.

The 26-year-old West, who lives in Brandywine, was charged with speeding and weapons counts. It is illegal to carry concealed weapons and to transport loaded guns in Maryland, according to police. Reedy said West was released on his own recognizance early Friday.

Cavaliers general manager Danny Ferry said the team was monitoring the situation.

"We have been in communication with Delonte and his family," Ferry said in a statement. "We are gathering more information and will not have further comment until the appropriate time."

Online court records did not list an attorney for West.


Of course, you'll never attract any attention on a Can-Am :shock:

    Delonte is the man! - in actuality he has some serious demons. last year he came out saying how he has struggled with depression-like symptoms all his life. at St. Joe's and last year with the Cavs he had an unexpected fit of rage during a practice. Saw an article after this story came out about how at times he has exhibited some strange behavior with the Cavs - bipolar at the least. His father was quoted in the story in the Cleveland paper that he thought someone was after him. that's paranoid schizophrenia behavior possibly. hope someone takes care of him and helps him out.
