New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas started off his weekend behind bars.
According to reports, Thomas was arrested following an altercation with a construction worker where he allegedly threw a brick at the man’s vehicle.
Thomas was charged with simple battery and criminal mischief.
“The victim stated that Thomas began yelling at him about parking in front of his house and verbally threatened to harm him,” Kenner police Lt. Mark McCormick said in a press release, via NFL.com.
“The victim began recording the incident, which upset Thomas, who then picked up a brick and threw it at the windshield of the truck, causing little if any damage. Thomas then walked up to the victim, knocked the phone from his hands, shoved him and told him he did not want to be recorded.”
The 30-year-old pass catcher has hauled in 38 catches for 439 yards and one touchdown this season.
Up next for the Saints is a trip to U.S. Bank Stadium to take on the Minnesota Vikings.
