NFL's Everson Griffen Escaped from Ambulance Before Mental Health Evaluation

Minnesota Vikings defensive end Everson Griffen jumped out of an ambulance fearing someone was going to shoot him -- while he was being transported for a mental health evaluation.

It's all in the police report filed by the Minnetrista PD -- which paints a sad picture of an NFL star in a serious mental health crisis.

The situation began early Saturday morning when a Vikings staffer called cops to report the 3-time Pro Bowler was acting bizarre and the team feared he could either hurt himself or others.

Cops eventually made contact with Everson's wife Tiffany who said he had been fighting "demons" in his head -- and acting erratically.
