Brewers' Keon Broxton arrested, charged with trespassing

Brewers outfielder Keon Broxton was arrested early Friday in Tampa, Fla., after allegedly yelling at police officers.

Broxton was arrested on a misdemeanor trespass charge at 3:26 a.m. and released from jail about four hours later, according to Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office online records.

According to a police report cited by the Tampa Bay Times, the 26-year-old resident of nearby Lakeland was among a group of people lingering in area after police had responded to reports of a fight. Police said Broxton had "visible injuries to his face" and was extremely intoxicated and began yelling epithets at officers.
