Newly signed Seattle Seahawks defensive end Aldon Smith is facing legal trouble once again.
Smith is wanted by St. Bernard Parish authorities in Louisiana for an alleged incident at French Press Coffee House in Chalmette on April 17th, a mere two days after he officially signed with the Seahawks. A police bulletin says Smith is facing a charge of second-degree battery, and NBC New Orleans anchor Travers Mackel reports that the scene was captured on surveillance video.
It is well documented at this point that Smith’s career was shelved for nearly five years as a result of several arrests and violations of the league’s substance abuse and personal conduct policies.
