As it says in the article, this is clearly the frontrunner for sports arrest of the year. Maybe the decade.
Oregon State offensive lineman Tyler Thomas was arrested after police found him naked and drunk in a woman's house (he did not know her). When police confronted Thomas, he got down in a three-point stance and charged the cops.
And that's when they broke out the Taser.
Thomas has been kicked off the team.

From the police report:
When officers arrived, they ordered him to get on the ground several times, but he refused. Then Thomas, who had reportedly been drinking, got into a “three-point stance” and lunged at the officers, who Tased him. Thomas was booked into Benton County Jail but was released later the same day.
