A former defensive end was taken into custody after refusing to leave a freeway. The individual, later identified as Everson Griffen, was found on the shoulder of the road and ordered to depart by a state trooper. When Griffen failed to comply, the trooper used a Taser to subdue him.
Griffen was then medically cleared and booked into jail on a misdemeanor charge. This incident is one of several encounters Griffen has had with law enforcement in recent years. Further details about the incident and Griffen's history are available from the Minnesota State Patrol.
