Browns Star Pulled Over By Police With Drugs In Car
A Browns star was pulled over by police with drugs in the car.
Running back Kareem Hunt was pulled over by police in Rocky River, Ohio, on Tuesday for speeding.
During the stop, officers discovered that “small amounts of marijuana” were dispersed around the vehicle.
Hunt was ultimately given a citation for the traffic violation, but not the narcotics.
News of the stop came out Friday, a little more than a week out from when Hunt’s old team, the Kansas City Chiefs, will face off against the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl LIV.
Back in 2019, while a member of the Chiefs, the running back was suspended for the first half of the season for violating the NFL’s personal conduct policy.
The punishment stemmed from a viral video that showed him being violent with a woman in a hotel in 2018.

Kansas City promptly released him as soon as the allegations came to light.
While Cleveland has confirmed that the organization is aware of the latest legal incident involving Hunt, there has been no official statement made on the matter as of Friday afternoon.
