TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WCTV) – Detroit Lions cornerback and Tallahassee native Terrion Arnold was arrested in Tampa on Wednesday evening. The State Attorney plans to charge Arnold along with four other codefendants for felony robbery and kidnapping.
The former St. John Paul II football standout is accused of coordinating his codefendants to lure three men to an apartment where they were held at gunpoint according to the Hillsborough County State Attorney. The State claims Arnold believes the men stole over $200,000 of his property during a stay at his AirBnB.
“No one has the right to take the law into their own hands. A dispute over missing property does not justify kidnapping, violence, or retaliation. This arrest is the result of months of investigative work and collaboration between the Tampa Police Department and our prosecutors. We will continue to pursue justice for the three victims by holding everyone accountable for their roles in this crime,” said State Attorney Suzy Lopez in a statement released by her office.
The 23 year old was drafted by the Lions 24th overall in the 2024 NFL Draft following three years at Alabama.
