Arrest Warrant Issued For Athlete Odell Beckham For Slapping Security Guard On The Butt (Video)

There’s an episode of “The Golden Girls” where the sitcom character Blanche playfully pinches a police officer on the bottom twice and he threatens to arrest her, but she runs off before he can do so. Well, maybe Cleveland Browns football player Odell Beckham Jr should have legged it like Blanche, because a warrant has been issued for his arrest, for slapping a police officer/security guard on the butt. The charge is for simple battery.

The incident occurred inside LSU lockerroom. The security guard told the celebrating college football players to put out their cigars in the lockerroom. As he bent over to communicate this information to one of the football players, Odell smacked him on the butt, in what was meant to be a humorous attempt at getting him to stop interrupting the celebrations.

In American football, players and coaches slap each other on the butt. It is not meant to be considered sexual or a form of battery. However, the security guard was not amused and filed a complaint with New Orleans police. If found guilty Odell could face 6-months in jail and a $10,000 fine.
