Steelers Star Hines Ward Handcuffed At Gun Point By LAPD

There have been dozens of reports about NFL players being arrested this offseason but this is the first time I’ve heard of guns being drawn in one of those situations.

Steelers WR, Hines Ward has been in L.A. for the past few months for his stint on “Dancing With The Stars.” Around 2:00 AM Wednesday night, he and a female companion were pulled over by LAPD, removed from the car while the officers had their guns drawn and handcuffed. Of course TMZ has the details:

The “Dancing with the Stars” contestant was a passenger in a Honda Civic around 2 AM … when LAPD officers flipped on their lights and sirens and pulled the car over.

Law enforcement sources tell us cops had run the license plate and noticed the car had been reported stolen.  We’re told police drew their weapons … and ordered both Hines and the female driver out of the car and placed them both in handcuffs.

The female driver then explained … SHE was the person who reported the car stolen in the first place after an incident involving a valet. But she got her car back … and forgot to tell cops to call off the alert.

We’re told the officers verified her story — and eventually let both Hines and the driver leave without further incident.

Really, all of that?? I do have a question however, is Hines Ward married? 2:00 AM out with a random female, what does that sound like to you?
