Arizona State linebacker Antonio Longino was supposed to be in camp with the Bengals this weekend for a tryout.
Instead, he’s in jail.
Via NewsNet5 in Cleveland, Langino has been arrested for tampering with evidence in a homicide investigation.
Police found a vehicle with two bullet holes at Longino’s aunt’s house, and a search warrant was served and several bags of evidence were taken from the scene. Police sources told them it was related to an investigation of a murder that happened at the Sunny Spot Lounge. A 24-year-old man was found shot in a vehicle nearby, and died later at the hospital.
Longino is being held on $100,000 bond, pending a first appearance in court. The logistical issues aside (players were reporting for the rookie minicamp today), it’s easy to guess that his first appearance in an NFL camp might be delayed as well.
