Seahawks RT In Jail?

530PM EDIT:

This story has been confirmed by the Tacoma News Tribune's Mike Sando, who is the best damn beatwriter in the NFL.

To clarify, the laws regarding domestive violence in Washington state are quite vague. If two people are discussing the ramifications a unified Germany has had on Europe as a whole, and it's done at a decibel level that prompts someone to call the police, someone is going to jail. Seriously. The facts pertaining this case are not yet public, so who knows exactly what happened. I'm hoping, for all involved, that this matter isn't very serious as compared to spousal abuse, which is a real problem, and a horrible crime for one to commit.

Also, the time of arrest listed earlier is incorrect. It was 3am, not 3pm, on 1/15/2006. This makes a little bit more sense, as at 3pm (PST), I'm sure all the Seahawks were glued to their televisions to see who their opponent would be in the NFC Championship game. With the incident happening at 3am, it's clear that this was done after celebrating the playoff victory.

It also further demonstrates that nothing good can come from being out and about at 3am.

ORIGINAL ENTRY:

While not yet confirmed, someone over at Seahawks.Net posted a rumor that Seahawks RT Sean Locklear is in the King County Jailhouse for a Domestic Violence charge.

Police were apparently called to Pioneer Square at 3pm yesterday, and a person named "Sean Hilary Locklear" was brought into custody.

Locklear took over as the team's starting RT after projected starter Floyd "Pork Chop" Womack went down with an injury. Locklear is in his 2nd season with the Seahawks, and was a 3rd round draft pick in 2004.
