Maurice Clarett arrested on concealed weapons charge following highway chase
Maurice Clarett was charged with carrying a concealed weapon after a highway chase early Wednesday that ended with police using Mace on the former Ohio State running back and finding four loaded guns in his sport-utility vehicle.
Officers used Mace to subdue Clarett after a stun gun was ineffective because the former Fiesta Bowl star was wearing a bullet-resistant vest, Sgt. Michael Woods said.
“It took several officers to get him handcuffed,” Woods said. “Even after he was placed in the paddy wagon, he was still kicking at the doors and being a problem for the officers.”
Let’s make sure we’re getting this straight - Maurice Clarett is speeding around in an SUV, 4 loaded guns in tow, wearing a bulletproof vest. We’ve heard people say athletes live in a fantasy world, but it’s not often that fantasy is Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.

In old Ohio there’s a team
That’s known throughout the land,
Eleven warriors, brave and bold,
Whose fame will ever stand,
And when the ball goes over,
Our cheers will reach the sky, O-

We have to win this game today,
C’mon Ohio!
Smash through to victory,
We cheer you as we go,
Our honor defend,
We will fight to the end, for
