Former Michigan State University basketball star Keith Appling accepted a plea deal today requiring him to spend a year in jail in connection with an incident last August involving a gun.
It was the third case in which he faced charges over a four-month period last year.
Appling, 25, pleaded guilty to carrying a concealed weapon and resisting and obstructing a police officer. He is scheduled to be sentenced Aug. 3, officials said. Two other charges in the case — third-degree fleeing a police officer and felony firearm —were dismissed.
