The Police Blotter - Kelly Campbell

Uh oh. A "Where are they now" segment I'd rather not report. Kelly Campbell is arrested on marajuana and weapons charges near the Georgia Dome.

CAMPBELL ARRESTED


According to police records, Campbell passed three cars by going into an oncoming traffic lane and was pulled over by police. The officer claimed a strong smell of marijuana came out of Campbell's 2003 Denali when he lowered the window.


A search discovered a handgun that had been reported stolen and 16 grams of marijuana. Campbell posted a personal bond and was released.

THE JOKES ARE STARTING TO COME

Kelly Campbell gets busted for marijuana possession. Who knew the Vikings could fill the Moss void so easily?



COACH TICE TAKING A HARD STANCE

Vikings coach Mike Tice scheduled an additional 10 interviews with wide receiver draft prospects for Saturday night and issued a not-so-subtle warning to his own embattled receiver, Kelly Campbell, who was arrested on weapons and drug charges in Atlanta on Thursday.


"Kelly has his version of the story that he has told me, and he will get his chance to tell it in court," Tice said Saturday during the NFL scouting combine. "Let him have his day in court. But if there is something to this, I may have to re-evaluate my options with Kelly Campbell. Absolutely."


After this incident and the Angelo Taylor incident I hope I do not have to start a new segment on this site for Police Blotter.
