Marshawn Lynch busted again
The Buffalo Bills RB Marshawn Lynch is 2 for 2 in 1000-yard rushing seasons. In his rookie campaign, he rushed for 1115 yards. This season, he rushed for 1036 yards.
But he is also 2 for 2 in getting arrested in the off-season. Last May, Lynch's vehicle was involved in a hit-and-run accident in which a woman required seven stitches.
At the time, a law enforcement official said he wasn't surprised about the incident.
According to a police report filed Sunday, Lynch has been arrested in Culver City, CA on a weapons charge after Lynch and two other men were approached by police.

At the time, a law enforcement official said he wasn't surprised about the incident.
“God, no, I wasn’t surprised at all,” the source said. “It follows a pattern. It’s the kind of stuff he’s been doing. He’s just so cavalier about everything. That was always my impression.”For last May's incident, Lynch didn't face criminal charges, but he pled "guilty to failing to use sufficient care to avoid hitting a pedestrian" and paid a $100 fine.
According to a police report filed Sunday, Lynch has been arrested in Culver City, CA on a weapons charge after Lynch and two other men were approached by police.
"A subsequent field investigation led to the discovery of a loaded firearm," the report said. "The officers determined the gun belonged to Lynch and he was arrested for possession of a concealed firearm."It is unclear if he has a permit for the gun (or if he was wearing sweat pants). But I wouldn't be surprised if the league suspends Lynch considering it's not his first run-in with the law and the high profile status of the Plaxico Burress case involving weapon charges.
