Devin Haney Arrested
The excitement of Devin Haney’s recent triumph over Vasiliy Lomachenko was still palpable when news of his arrest surfaced. TMZ reports that while leaving a well-known Hollywood establishment, the vehicle Haney was a passenger in was pulled over by law enforcement for unsafe driving maneuvers. Despite not being the driver, the individual operating the vehicle disclosed to the officers that there was a firearm present in the car.
According to law enforcement, after pulling over the vehicle Devin Haney was in, they found a semi-automatic handgun under the driver’s seat during a search of the car. In light of the fact no one took responsibility for the firearm, Haney was taken into custody for felony possession of a concealed weapon as the vehicle was registered under his name.
Despite being arrested for felony possession of a concealed weapon, Devin Haney was released from jail on Thursday morning after posting a $35,000 bail. However, his legal troubles are far from over, as he’s scheduled to appear in court next month for a hearing on the matter.
It’s a shame to see another talented athlete getting caught up in legal trouble, and it remains to be seen how this will affect Haney’s future in the sport. It’s important for professional athletes, especially those in the public eye, to be aware of the consequences of their actions and to make responsible choices both in and out of the ring.
