croixflats Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Vikings defensive end Everson Griffen was arrested Monday in Los Angeles on charges of felony battery.Griffen was pulled over at the intersection of 30th and Hoover Streets. He reportedly became aggressive when he was questioned by officers. He then fled (always a good idea), and he assaulted one of the pursuing officers (an ever better idea).The adventure ended with a Taser gun and a felony charge.A fourth-round pick of the Vikings in the 2010 draft, Griffen appeared in 11 games as a rookie, making 11 tackles.

Steve Foss Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Well, a person can rush to judgment or wait and see what happens as the legal system plays out. Considering today's society, I reckon there won't be many people waiting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harvey lee Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I have no idea what happened as I was not there. To believe he is guilty simply because the article says so or the police say it is is nonsense.I would tend to believe the story but I also know that at times, the police also have been at fault. I guess we will hopefully find the truth in time but I would question that also.I do not believe other teams are exempt from this type action.
