INDIANAPOLIS (AP) -Indianapolis Colts defensive tackle Darrell Reid won’t face criminal charges for refusing to leave a nightclub parking lot.
Reid, 26, was arrested early Sunday for disorderly conduct and trespassing after police said he ignored an officer’s orders to leave the parking lot. But the charges were vacated because Reid never officially was on the club’s property, a spokesman for the Marion County prosecutor said Monday.
“There was a side street he was on which turns onto the parking lot,” spokesman Mario Massillamany said. “The interesting thing is, just a few feet makes a huge difference.”
According to the police report, Reid arrived at Club Oxygen about 1:30 a.m. Sunday as an off-duty officer was helping clear the nightclub’s parking lot because the club was at capacity.
in asked Reid to leave, the report said, Reid backed up his vehicle and nearly collided with another car that was trying to leave. Massillamany said that was a non-issue because there was no accident.
Colts spokesman Craig Kelley said Monday night the team had no comment.
