Steelers’ Burns charged with driving with suspended license

MIAMI BEACH, Fla. (AP) Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback Artie Burns has been charged with driving with a suspended license.

A Miami Beach Police report says an officer pulled over Burns’ Cadillac SUV in South Beach on Thursday for having an expired tag.

The report says the 22-year-old Burns failed to produce a driver’s license, and was handcuffed and taken to a county jail.

Miami-Dade County court records show Burns hadn’t paid hundreds of dollars in traffic tickets and failed to appear for a hearing.

The police report says Burns’ SUV was impounded and the vehicle’s tag was seized.
