    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>GREENWOOD VILLAGE, Colo. -- Denver Nuggets reserve forward DerMarr Johnson was charged with resisting arrest and interfering with police during a disturbance outside a nightclub. Police said they used a taser to calm the 6-foot-9 player. "He apparently would not cooperate," police Lt. Randy Corbitt said. Johnson and two women were arrested, booked and released early Saturday. The women were charged with disturbing the peace. Dan Recht, Johnson's lawyer, said his client was breaking up a fight between the two women. "There was a great deal of confusion and the police mistakenly believe he was interfering with them," Recht told The Denver Post. "However, we are confident when all the facts come out it will be clear that DerMarr is innocent and did nothing wrong." Johnson, in his sixth season in the league, averaged 3.5 points and 1.5 rebounds in 10.7 minutes this season.Copyright 2007 by The Associated Press</div>Source: ESPN

    I'm glad he was supposedly trying to break up the fight, but he should let the police do their job. [​IMG]

I don't know if he was driving or what, or if anybody was killed.

    He fell asleep at the wheel a couple years ago when he was with the Hawks. I'm pretty sure he didn't kill anyone but I know he came very close to dying. I'm not sure there was even another car involved.
