NFL star Ed Oliver arrested for drunk driving while unlawfully carrying a weapon

Buffalo Bills star Ed Oliver is the latest NFL player to land himself in hot water with the law this week after the former first-round NFL Draft pick was arrested on charges of DWI and illegal possession of a firearm.

Oliver was arrested late on Saturday in Maryland and booked in the Montgomery County Jail for the two charges, both of which are misdemeanors.

According to the Montgomery County Police report, a member of the public reported that a white Ford Superduty vehicle was being driven erratically through a construction zone and was described by the caller as “failing to maintain a lane and driving dangerously,” according to the report.

The car, which was being driven by Oliver, was subsequently pulled over by a sheriff’s deputy and it was noted that the 22-year-old defensive lineman was carrying an open bottle of alcohol between his legs. (Text, photo by RT)
