WSBTC.com DECATUR -- Atlanta Falcons defensive tackle Rod Coleman was released on bond after he was arrested early Friday for misdemeanor disorderly conduct in DeKalb County. DeKalb Police spokesman Sgt. Charles Dedrick said Coleman "was verbally abusive" to a police officer. Coleman was a passenger in a 2004 Land Rover pulled over for speeding at about 3:30 a.m. on Interstate 85 near Shallowford Road. Another passenger, Sean Watson, was also arrested for disorderly conduct.
Coleman was released after posting a $363 bond.
During the stop, the officer said he was telling the driver his car insurance was expired when Coleman said, "I wish you would touch my (expletive) truck. Do you know who I am? I play for the Falcons," according to the police report.
Ohhh, you play defensive tackle for the Falcons. Umm, still no.
