Keith Appling, former Michigan State Spartans player faces weapons charges

DEARBORN, Mich. -- Authorities say former Michigan State basketball player Keith Appling has been charged with carrying a concealed weapon and other crimes after being found in possession of guns and marijuana in suburban Detroit.

The Wayne County prosecutor's office says the 24-year-old was arrested Sunday outside a Dearborn strip club. Club security called police after seeing a man pull a gun from the trunk of a car.

Prosecutors say Appling was in the driver's seat. Officers found a handgun, a loaded weapon and a small amount of suspected marijuana.
