Harry Coleman, a linebacker for the American football team the New Orleans Saints, was arrested at a casino in Louisiana on Sunday after a scuffle with a fan. Reports have suggested that a fan allegedly approached Coleman, but the sports star “wasn’t amused” and proceeded to ”shove” the fellow casino patron. While the incident didn’t lead to any further altercations, the fan filed a complaint against Coleman to the Chitimacha Police Department, who duly arrested the sports star at the casino.

It’s believed that Coleman cooperated with the police when they informed the sports pro that he would be booked “on a misdemeanour simple battery charge”. Coleman was soon released, but the Chitimacha Police Department has refused to make a statement on the incident. The New Orleans Saints’ head coach, Sean Payton, has revealed that Coleman’s position in the team hasn’t changed and the linebacker will be able to participate in team training. Coleman’s football career began just a few years ago, when he became a safety, then linebacker for his local team, the LSU Tigers.
