Delonte West Arrested Again After Weird Incident At Florida Police Department

After Delonte West was spotted on the streets of Dallas again in September 2020, holding a sign asking people for money, Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban went actively looking for West, found him and picked him up at a Dallas gas station in an attempt to help his former player get his life back on track.

Cuban took West to a local hotel and offered to pay for his treatment, something West agreed to, as went to rehab in Florida, and eventually appeared to be back to his normal self.

Unfortunately though, West now was arrested in Boynton Beach, Florida. He appeared to be banging on the doors of the police station while yelling profanity with an open can of beer and a bottle of vodka. 

Per WTPV:

“The report said West complied with those demands, however, when he stood back up, he began to place his hands inside the waistband of his pants.

Police said one officer unholstered and initialized a Taser and continued to give verbal commands. Officers said Delonte West complied, dropped to his knees with his hands in the air and was handcuffed.

When they tried to secure him in the back of a patrol vehicle, they said the former NBA player “continued to be belligerent and screaming profanities and obscure rants.”
