Tennessee Titans' Kenny Britt faces more legal problems
Kenny Britt’s legal troubles keep piling up. Metro police want the Tennessee Titans receiver in connection with two outstanding warrants issued by the Tennessee Highway Patrol.
Britt is accused of making inaccurate statements on his driver’s license applications on two occasions, Metro police spokesman Don Aaron said. The charge is a misdemeanor.
“We would anticipate that he would report and surrender himself on these and let them be served when he returns to the state of Tennessee,” Aaron said. “If he does not, he’ll be subject to arrest.”
Attorney Jonathan Farmer, who represents Britt, said his client plans to cooperate. Farmer declined to say when Britt, who has spent most of the offseason in New Jersey, might return to town.
“When he gets back he is going to cooperate fully, and we are looking forward to getting that resolved in a quick manner,” Farmer said. “He takes it seriously and is looking forward to getting it resolved.”
Britt has been involved in at least seven incidents with police since the Titans drafted him in 2009. Last week he was arrested in New Jersey.
Aaron said the warrants were issued by the THP on April 14, at which time Metro police attempted to serve them at Britt’s residence. He wasn’t home, and police believe he hasn’t been back in Nashville since then. Britt did not attend an unofficial minicamp with his teammates last week in Nashville.
Dalya Qualls, spokesperson for the state Department of Safety and Homeland Security, confirmed the THP’s criminal investigation division is involved in an ongoing probe regarding Britt.
It is believed Britt provided incorrect information as to whether his license had been suspended in the past.
Britt also has legal matters to sort out in his home state of New Jersey.
He is scheduled to appear in a Hoboken court on Thursday to answer for an arrest Wednesday, when he was charged with tampering with evidence, obstructing a government function and resisting arrest after allegedly crushing a cigar containing what officers suspected to be marijuana.
The arrest came one day after Britt pleaded guilty to careless driving charges stemming from another arrest in New Jersey.
