The details continue to get wilder and wilder. We already know that Richard Sherman was arrested early this morning in Seattle on charges of burglary domestic violence after he reportedly tried to get into a family member’s home and engaged in an altercation with the responding police officers.
Now we’re being told that Sherman put up such a strong fight with the officers that they had to deploy the K9 unit to take him down.
According to TMZ, Sherman was combative during questioning and the K9’s help was required in order to take the free agent cornerback into custody:
According to the spokesperson, officers showed up to a residence in the Redmond area after receiving a call from the occupants inside the home who claimed a family member who did not live there was trying to break in.
Cops say when they arrived on scene, they identified Sherman as the suspect … and claim he became uncooperative and combative during questioning.
Sherman allegedly fought with cops so much … we’re told a K9 was deployed to take down the NFL player and help bring him into custody.
Cops say he was taken to the hospital to be looked at for possible injuries before he was eventually booked at the county jail.
Sherman is still in custody. More information to come. Stay tuned.
