A retired NFL player and ex-teammate of Russell Wilson got into legal trouble when he was arrested in Las Vegas. The charges against him, including DUI, have caused concern as new details emerge about his arrest.

The defense team says there’s not enough evidence for the DUI charges, but the city attorneys strongly disagree. As the legal fight continues, the person’s fate is uncertain, facing charges like suspected DUI, failure to show insurance, and driving an unregistered car.

Marshawn Lynch, ex-teammate of Russell Wilson, faces charges, including DUI, after being arrested in Las Vegas. Documents reveal his blood alcohol level was over double the limit. Police found Lynch, 37, asleep at the wheel, and under Nevada law, this is deemed “in physical control.”

TMZ Sports reports that Lynch was driving recklessly, hitting curbs before being pulled over. The incident involved a missing tire and another one flattened. Court documents obtained by 8 News Now reveal Lynch’s blood alcohol level was 0.18. Nonetheless, lawyers for the ex-Seattle Seahawks player claim the circumstances fail to meet DUI criteria. According to the defense, the officer alleges alcohol presence based on odor, but there’s no proof of Mr. Lynch’s consumption or driving.
