We have update on the Aldon Smith “false bomb threat” fiasco. According the to the Sacramento Bee, airport police Sgt. Karla Ortiz said it appeared that Smith had been drinking. Police said they didn’t run any sobriety tests because it didn’t factor in his arrest.
A witness told The Bee that trouble began brewing earlier at the Southwest Airlines ticket counter. Following an argument there, a ticket agent said that Smith would not be allowed on the plane. After going through security, the witness said Smith was approached by TSA personnel. He advanced toward his gate where he was taken into custody by five officers. A video of the incident shows an officer bringing a police dog into the vicinity of the gate as Smith is being led away in handcuffs.
Smith is currently out on $20,000 bail. A “false report of a bomb threat” is a felony charge that can lead up to a year in jail.
Hopefully, Smith can get the proper help because this trend is costing him millions and could land him in jail or worse.
