quote:

LAPD officers were called to the Nickerson Gardens area in L.A. around 10 PM -- and when they arrived, cops found a large crowd of people smoking, playing loud music and blocking the roadway.

Law enforcement sources tell us 3 people were seen grabbing their waistbands and running -- so cops went after them.

Three people were detained -- including Randolph, who was eventually arrested for possession of marijuana with intent to sell, A FELONY. We're told the "intent to sell" part was due to the large amount of weed found.

Another man who was arrested was an ex-con in possession of a gun, law enforcement sources say.




quote:

After the arrests, we're told things got crazy -- the crowd became unruly and LAPD had to call for backup.

We're told 6 cop cars were vandalized -- tires slashed and windows busted -- and cops formed a battle line to restore order.

In the end, cops recovered 2 guns, drugs, a significant amount of cash and 2 vehicles were impounded -- though it's unclear if any of those things belonged to Randolph.




This is what happens when you change cities and the locals don't know who you are.

Sounds like a pretty bs charge. Probably wanted to charge him with something because of the mini-riot

I didn't know he left Memphis. Or that he has been in the NBA since 2001 and is 36.

He should have asked them "do you know who i am?" then. That works a lot.

A cop ran down an NBA player?

That's kind of embarrassing.

The intent to sell law is dumb because it is an assumption based on the quantity you have. I doubt Randolph is really going out of his way to make 1500 bucks on a weed sale

Intent to sell? Maybe he had a large amount of marijuana because he's a freaking multi-millionaire.

Even if they didn't know who he was, he's tall as frick, that should have been a clue of his potential profession.

Morey would have already handled this off the books. Thats why so many players want to play in CC imo.

while i agree that it's doubtful an nba veteran would need to rely on selling dime bags to make a few extra bucks, i have zero problem with an "intent to sell" law based on quantity. 99 out of 100 people carrying weight aren't doing so for their own consumption. Randolph would most likely be that 1% that is, but i have zero sympathy for his dumb arse.
