Seattle (AFP) - Seattle Seahawks running back Derrick Coleman, who helped the team's 2014 Super Bowl title run, was arrested Thursday for vehicular assault and hit-and-run and suspended by the NFL club.

The 24-year-old fullback, the first legally deaf player in the NFL who uses hearing aids and reads lips in order to compete, was being held at King County Jail after being booked at 1:20 a.
