Saints’ Lattimore suspected of possessing stolen handgun

CLEVELAND (AP) – Police in Cleveland say New Orleans Saints cornerback Marshon Lattimore has been arrested there on suspicion of possessing a weapon.

A Cleveland police spokesperson says Lattimore was arrested Thursday night in Cleveland after authorities stopped a car he was riding in for traffic violations.

Police say Lattimore had a loaded handgun that had been reported stolen in a Cleveland suburb.

Lattimore is suspected of receiving stolen property and failing to inform an officer he was carrying a concealed weapon. An attorney for Lattimore says his client is cooperating and has called it a misunderstanding.
