Delonte West Domestic Abuse Charges? 

Post#1 » by NickAnderson » Sun Oct 25, 2009 9:10 pm

CLEVELAND, OH (WOIO) - Cleveland Cavaliers player Delonte West and his wife reportedly got into a spat Saturday evening that ended with West's wife filing a domestic violence report.

The two reportedly fought at their apartment when Delonte tried to take her wedding ring off. Mrs. West left their home and headed to Cleveland Hopkin's International Airport, where she filed a domestic violence report.

Cleveland Police tell 19 Action News there were no signs of abuse or injury. Mrs. West then got on her flight and flew out of Cleveland.

Tad Carper, Vice President of Communciatons with the Cleveland Cavaliers tells 19 Action News "the team was contacted and is aware of the situation but declined any further comment."




CLEVELAND, OH (WOIO) - 19 Action News has just learned that Cleveland Cavaliers player Delonte West was involved in an "incident" at Cleveland Hopkins International Airport Saturday evening.

West was recently arrested for carrying three loaded guns while riding his motorcycle. Police pulled him over and found one gun strapped to each leg and the other in a guitar case strapped to his back.

Delonte West suffers from bipolar disorder.

Check back for details.

:rofl:

So can we start assuming that Delonte is not going to be playing a ton of basketball this season?

You're confusing the Matrix with Desperado.

For those not familiar with Cleveland News Stations, 19 Action News is pretty much a joke.

For example, they had this big report about J.J. Hickson having an arrest warrant. On their intro, they made him seem like a escaped murderer.

The real story? He forgot to pay a traffic ticket.

At one point a few years ago, their headlines read: "Are the Cleveland Cavs moving out of town?!". After they hyped it up for 45 minutes, it was just about the new training facility being built in Independence.

Essentially, they'll do anything for viewers. So take them reporting on an "incident" with a grain of salt

Everybody's probably different. Too bad to hear that about Delonte, and you too, as that's a tough thing to deal with. I have a cousin who's bipolar; she's had numerous suicidal incidents when she's off her meds.

Incident apparently can mean falling asleep in the presence of a woman and empty beer bottles so I wouldn't get too worked up yet.

When is that idiot going to get sent off to prison. For the good of society. Thugs like him do not deserve to be walking free amongst us.

I really do not think there is anything here. No other media outlet in Cleveland has anything on their websites. Moreover, my very good friend is a director for Homeland Secruity at Hopkins and says he knows nothing about it...........I could be wrong but do not think there is anything here.

The fact that this hasn't been even hinted at by the Cavs' beat writer(Windhorst) or picked up by any major news outlet outside of 19 Action News leads me to believe that whatever "incident" that occurred was something that is well, not newsworthy.

Heh apparently he had just watched Desperado and felt Antonio was stealing all the thunder.

This should easily be a 50 game suspension. I don't care if it's for loitering.
