| Quote: | OAKLAND -- NFL star and former Oakland Tech and Cal football player Marshawn Lynch was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence Saturday night and taken to Santa Rita Jail, according to a sheriff's spokesman.
Lynch, 26, who plays for the Seattle Seahawks, was arrested by the California Highway Patrol in Oakland, according to Alameda County Sheriff's spokesman Sgt. Raymond Kelly. He was taken to Santa Rita Jail, where he was cited and released.
Additional details on the circumstances of the arrest weren't immediately available.
Lynch was in Oakland last week to award a scholarship to recent high school graduate through his Fam 1st Family Foundation.
The All-American running back was selected by the Buffalo Bills in the first round of the 2007 NFL Draft. He was traded to the Seattle Seahawks in 2010.
Lynch's drivers license was revoked in 2008 after he pleaded guilty to "failing to exercise due care toward a pedestrian." Lynch said he was unaware that he had struck a woman outside a Buffalo, NY, bar at 3:30 a.m.
Lynch. a two-time Pro Bowler, was also suspended for three games in the 2009 season after pleading guilty to a misdemeanor weapons charge. |

oh god. sincerely hope there's no suspension involved
edit: people speculating there could be a big one since it's his 3rd problem and he's already been suspended in the past |

Just great.
What an idiot. And how ironic that he gets it the night he's awarding a scholarship. C'mon man... _________________

We all saw what happened last year when Lynch was missing from the team. If he misses games, it greatly affects the offense. Turbin better acclimate to the NFL quickly.
What an idiot. _________________

Haha Yeah, that's about right. Scary mug shot.
If I met him in a back ally I'd call him, "sir". _________________

In the article cited in the first post:
| Quote: | | ...submitted to a blood test once he was in custody, Baiza said. Lynch's blood-alcohol level was over the .08 limit, Baiza added, though he declined to specify the exact measurement. |
