Saints WR Michael Thomas arrested Friday on simple battery charges, later released

Saints WR Michael Thomas was arrested Friday night on misdemeanor charges of simple battery and criminal mischief and was later released.

Fantasy Impact: 

From Kat Terrell: "Thomas was arrested following an altercation with a man who was doing construction work on a house being built in Thomas' neighborhood. The man stated that Thomas yelled at him about parking in front of his house and issued verbal threats.

According to the man's statement, Thomas was also upset that the man began recording him during the incident and threw a brick at his windshield, which caused 'little if any damage.' The man alleged Thomas said he did not want to be recorded, shoved him and knocked the phone out of his hands."

Thomas is the second Saints receiver arrested in the past month. Chris Olave was arrested for speeding on October 23. The Saints said Friday they were aware of the situation and were gathering information.
