Updated (05/26/2010 )Free agent defender Harry Coleman arrested

Sir Psycho Sexy · 05-25-2010, 07:30 PM

Former LSU standout and current New Orleans Saints free agent defender Harry Coleman was arrested on a simple battery charge around 3 a.m. last Sunday morning, authorities in St. Mary Parish confirm.
Details of the incident, which happened in the early morning hours, remain sketchy. Coleman was arrested and released on the charge, which generally is tied to allegations stemming from a scuffle.
Records show the arrest was made by the Chitimacha Police Department, according to the St. Mary Parish Sheriff's Office. A woman answering the phone at the Chitimacha Police Department said she did not have access to Sunday's records and that it was unlikely anyone who did would be able to discuss the matter before Wednesday.
Some law enforcement officials speculated that, given the hour, Coleman, a native of Baldwin, may have also been involved in an incident at the casino run by the Chitimacha tribe.
Officials at LSU, where Coleman was a two-year starter and a member of the 2007 national championship team, said they first learned of the matter through a posting at Tigerdroppings,com and did not have any additional comment.
Saints officials also did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The team signed Coleman, who started at both safety and linebacker for the Tigers and led the team in tackles in 2008, to a free agent contract within hours of the 2010 NFL draft conclusion. Coleman participated in the Saints rookie camp earlier this month and is presumably involved in the team's offseason activities that began Monday and will conclude Thursday.

DOOOOHHHHH I hope all of this is just some mixup and he's relieved of charges otherwise Sean Payton will handle it

Stuff happens guys. Even if he did get into a fight, he will pay the fine for it. I'm not going to condemn a guy, for doing something I've done, on more than one occasion.

+1. People are already ready to kick the guy to the curb 'round here. Let's wait for some details shall we?

If Coleman was on the Saints team last year I would be convinced that it was Brett Favre who made this claim. But for now, it is way early in the process to tell what exactly happened.
