Yesterday, it was noticed on Twitter that Auston Matthews had a pending criminal charge in the Scottsdale City Court for disorderly conduct. Without knowing more of it, Leaf fans assumed Matthews had gotten into a bar fight or something similar. This didn’t seem to bother most of us too much.
Subsequent to that, several reporters, from the CBC, the Toronto Star, and the Athletic obtained the police report. The substance of the complaint is that this past May, a female security guard at Matthews’ condo complex was doing some paperwork in her car, outside the building at about two o’clock in the morning.
