Athlete Arrest

This wasn't the sort of release Terrion Arnold was looking forward to on Monday -- hours after he was granted bond in his kidnapping and robbery case, the Detroit Lions announced they're cutting the star cornerback.

The news broke minutes ago ... but the Lions elected not to elaborate on the decision.

Earlier in the day, Arnold celebrated a bit of a victory ... as a judge ruled he does not have to stay behind bars leading up to his trial.

Detroit Lions star Terrion Arnold just caught a huge break in his kidnapping case -- he will NOT remain behind bars as he awaits his trial, a judge ruled on Monday.

Arnold appeared at a pretrial detention hearing in Hillsborough County, Florida ... where both sides broke down the serious allegations made against the 23-year-old.

While the judge believed there is certainly probable cause, he did not agree with the prosecution that Arnold should be held until trial.

U.S. track star Alvin Harrison -- who won a gold medal at the Summer Olympics in Atlanta in 1996 -- was arrested in Los Angeles Monday night for driving under the influence, TMZ Sports has learned.

We're told Burbank PD officers stopped Harrison, 52, shortly before 11 PM after observing him rolling through a Stop sign.

During the stop, officers believed the former sprinter was under the influence, so he was arrested for DUI.

Bode Miller just skied right past a criminal case ... because prosecutors are dumping all charges against him.

Attorney Jeromy Stafford tells TMZ that Fremont County Prosecutor Lindsey Blake has agreed to dismiss the misdemeanor drug possession and paraphernalia charges that stemmed from Miller's June 6 arrest following a traffic stop in Idaho.

Prosecutor Blake tells TMZ ... "I can confirm our office is dismissing the misdemeanor charges against Mr. Miller. Although the deputy had sufficient probable cause to arrest Mr. Miller at the beginning of June, we recently received information which resulted in our office determining it is in the interest of justice to dismiss Mr. Miller's misdemeanor charges. I will not be discussing the specifics of this recent information due to it being related to another active case." 

Terrion Arnold is spending the weekend in jail -- and potentially a whole lot longer -- the Lions cornerback just made his first court appearance, and the judge ordered the 23-year-old to be held without bond.

Arnold, wearing a green anti-suicide vest, stood before a Hillsborough County (FL) judge Thursday afternoon, where he's facing eight felony charges -- four counts of kidnapping and four counts of armed robbery -- going back to an alleged February 4th incident in Tampa.

Authorities say the former Alabama star coordinated and directed the robbery of three men at an Airbnb.

Former Olympic canoeist David Hearn's legal team is pushing back hard against allegations he vandalized the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool ... insisting his arrest was completely unwarranted and is being used as a distraction from the botched renovation.

Hearn's attorneys tell TMZ the allegations don't hold water, saying ..."Treating ordinary conduct as criminal diverts attention from the real questions of how this project was managed, including its corrupt no-bid contracting process."

The former athlete's lawyers took a swipe at President Trump too ... "Using the criminal justice system to target innocent people as a form of distraction is textbook authoritarian behavior."

Dustin Poirier was unhinged during his arrest this week, screaming while trying to fight airport employees after being removed from his flight ... in a totally chaotic scene.

The body camera footage was released on Tuesday, and from the moment the recording starts, the 37-year-old former UFC champ was furious.

"Let's go, big dog. Let's go, big dog. What's up? Buncha hos. Let's go. Let's go. F***in' lying motherf****r. Yeah, pulled me off the plane, all my boys went to the f***in' crib. Now, what the f***?" Dustin screamed.

The details of Olympian Bode Miller's arrest for drugs have been revealed in newly released court docs ... and it looks like psychedelic hallucinogens are involved.

TMZ obtained a copy of the probable cause affidavit, in which the officer claims Bode was caught with a white dispensary bag containing psilocybin mushrooms ... aka magic mushrooms ... when he got busted earlier this month in Idaho.

The docs say Bode had 4.1 grams of shrooms on him and knew his drugs were illegal. The officer says the athlete was placed under arrest following the discovery.

12:01 PM PT -- Ben Askren is (seemingly) providing some context around the arrest of Poirier, writing on X ... "He was having a good time at the airport. Wrestled some of my friends"

11:42 AM PT -- Dustin seemingly just went to Instagram to address the arrest, keeping it short and sweet, saying ... "Love you all Im working on my self"

It wasn't exactly the Father's Day Dustin Poirier had in mind ... the retired UFC legend was arrested early Sunday evening in Georgia, TMZ Sports has learned.

Poirier, 37, was booked for "Public Drunk" -- a misdemeanor -- at 6:38 PM ... before being released several hours later, a quarter after 10 PM.

It's unclear what led up to Dustin's arrest.

Former Olympic canoeist David Hearn is in hot water with the law -- and President Trump -- after getting arrested for allegedly vandalizing the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, according to a new report.

Hearn -- a three-time U.S. Olympian who competed in the canoe slalom -- stopped while on a 52-mile bike ride to take a look at the Reflecting Pool after its recent $14 Million renovation that was championed by Trump, The Washington Post reports.

The 67-year-old Hearn told the publication that all he did was reach into the water and touch a piece of partially detached pool liner to see what it felt like.

Rashee Rice is out of the slammer after completing a 30-day sentence for a probation violation ... and by the looks of it, he couldn't wait to get the heck home.

News reporters were camped outside the Dallas County Jail on Tuesday for the Kansas City Chiefs star's exit ... but those hoping for a comment from the 26-year-old were left empty-handed.

Fox 4 captured the scene ... showing Rice walk backwards and only turn around when he reached for the door with a smile on his face.

Tiger Woods' medical records may soon be part of his DUI case ... prosecutors say they want any documents relating to treatment he received at the hospital after his rollover crash and arrest.

The State Attorney's office in Martin County, Florida, filed a notice of its intent to subpoena medical records from a local hospital in Stuart -- the Cleveland Clinic Martin South -- and they're after anything that has to do with drinking or drugs.

The subpoena, which will be issued on June 30, according to officials, seeks "any and all reports documenting statements of the patient regarding alcohol or chemical substances use" and "any and all drug screen results," in addition to the names of anyone who administered the tests.

James Harden didn't look too thrilled to be posing for a mug shot early Saturday morning ... with the NBA star giving a blank stare after his gun-related arrest.

TMZ Sports has obtained the booking photo from the Houston Police Department ... showing the 36-year-old Cleveland Cavaliers guard staring down the camera lens.

As we previously reported, Harden was taken into custody around 3:41 AM when a handgun was observed on the seat of his car and not in a holster after being pulled over for a traffic violation.

Former NFL star Andre Rison is spending the weekend in jail ... after being booked in Michigan to serve time tied to a second-offense impaired driving case, TMZ has learned.

The Oakland County Jail tells TMZ the ex-wide receiver was booked into custody on Friday night and is scheduled for release Sunday.

Court records obtained by TMZ show Rison pleaded guilty to a second-offense operating while intoxicated charge stemming from an August 2025 incident in Troy, Michigan.

Jonathon Cooper found himself in handcuffs for the second time in a week after he was arrested Thursday night ... this time for allegedly harassing the woman he was involved in an altercation with during his June 4 arrest.

Jail records show the 28-year-old Broncos OLB was arrested at 10:07 PM ... and booked into the Douglas County (CO) Jail.

It's unclear exactly what allegedly unfolded, but Cooper is now facing four additional charges -- two domestic violence counts, harassment based on repeated phone calls, and violating a protective order -- in addition to the domestic violence and criminal mischief charges he was already hit with by prosecutors.

Denver Broncos star Jonathon Cooper went before a judge to address his recent arrest ... with his attorney entering a not guilty plea and requesting a prompt resolution in the case.

Cooper -- who was expressionless in a black shirt and pants -- was present in a Douglas County courtroom on Monday ... where his lawyer, Harvey Steinberg, emphasized the importance of getting the matter taken care of so the linebacker can get back to his day job.

Cooper did not speak during the brief appearance. A motion hearing is set for early next month.
