Former RB Clarett Arrested After Chase
Associated Press, ESPN - [Full Article]

RB Maurice Clarett was arrested early Wednesday after a highway chase that ended with police using Mace on the former Ohio State back and finding four loaded guns in his truck, a police spokesman said. Officers used Mace to subdue Clarett after a stun gun was ineffective because he was wearing a bullet-resistant vest, Sgt. Michael Woods said. Police were pursuing Clarett on eastbound Interstate 70 when he darted across the median. Clarett drove over a spike strip, flattening the driver's side tires of the SUV, Woods said. Clarett is currently awaiting trial on two counts of aggravated robbery, four counts of robbery and one count of carrying a concealed weapon in a separate case.

This is a quote from Mike Shanahan, "He's got some heavy issues. It's just a shame that this has happened to a guy that had so much promise and so much ability. I'm not sure what happened to him, but it's a real shame. We tried to reach him quite a bit when he was here. What he did have here was a lot of support from our veterans. Our players tried to really take care of this guy, and he wanted no part of it. That was one of the reasons he didn't make our football team. I don't think I've ever been around a bunch of guys reaching out to a guy more than Maurice, trying to help him, and the guy not wanting that help. That's a shame because as we all know, everybody's got issues. He was one of the few players we've had who didn't want to be helped."
