Gilbert Arenas arrested with truck full of illegal fireworks in Los Angeles (Video)
Gilbert Arenas was pulled over, handcuffed and placed under arrest early Thursday morning in Los Angeles, with police reportedly booking the former NBA All-Star for speeding without a license in a pickup truck full of illegal fireworks. (That's an amalgamation of the three things the ex-WashingtonWizards guard was reportedly doing, not the official charge ... although it would be pretty amazing if that was a specific law you could break.)
News of Arenas' run-in with the law, and the video proof up above, come from the all-seeing eyes of TMZ, which reported that the California Highway Patrol stopped Arenas, 31, for speeding at around 2:30 a.m. PT on Thursday morning and found many, many boxes of what you'd presume were intended to be Fourth of July-earmarked fireworks in plain sight in Agent Zero's Ford truck. (Apparently, Gil was also operating without a license.)
You can see law enforcement officials removing said boxes of boomsticks from Arenas' ride and into their own custody; I'm not an expert, but that seems like an awful lot of fireworks — enough, apparently, to warrant an appearance by the Los Angeles Police Department's bomb squad — which may present a bit of a problem for Arenas, according to Roger Simmons of the Orlando Sentinel:
