LISTEN! Terrifying 911 Call Made Just Moments Before NFL Star’s Arrest

In the early hours of Wednesday morning, free-agent cornerback Richard Sherman, formerly NFL All-Star from the Seattle Seahawks, was arrested on suspicion of burglary and domestic violence. Sherman was arrested after crashing his black Mercedes sedan, according to officials.

According to The Seattle Times, Sherman attempted to walk away from police when they informed him that they were placing him under arrest. A police dog was used to apprehend Sherman, who suffered a cut on his lower leg during the arrest.

While on the call with the emergency dispatcher, Ashley Sherman can be heard requesting officer assistance, saying that her “husband is drunk and threatening to kill himself.”

“He is being aggressive, he’s wrestling with my uncle, he’s threatening to kill himself, he has sent text messages to people saying he’s going to hang himself … he said that if the police show up he’ll try to fight them,” Ashley Sherman said to the dispatcher.

The dispatcher asked if Sherman had been physical with anyone at the residence.

“Yes, yes it has,” Ashley said. “He just tried to fight him.”

The woman can also be heard asking Sherman to stop and informs the dispatcher that he was attempting to leave in a black Mercedes SUV.

“Richard, please stop. Please stop,” Ashley Sherman can be heard saying.

King County District Court Judge Fa’amomoi Masaniai found probable cause that Sherman committed criminal trespassing, malicious mischief, driving under the influence, and resisting arrest. He was initially booked on a felony residential burglary. Sherman is not allowed to have contact with his father-in-law and he cannot use alcohol or nonprescription drugs, the judge ordered.
