Leonard Little Arrested for Drunk Driving

St. Louis Ram defensive end Leonard Little was arrested Saturday and cited for driving while intoxicated, police said. In a 1998 fatal accident, Little was driving drunk and pleaded guilty to involuntary manslaughter.

Police in this St. Louis suburb said Little was arrested shortly before 4 a.m. for a speeding violation on Interstate 64.

A police spokesperson said Little was booked and released after being issued two traffic summons.

Little’s agent, Rocky Arceneaux, did not immediately return a telephone message from Associated Press.

Coach Mike Martz said he learned of the arrest when he arrived at Rams Park for draft day early Saturday.

“This is something we’ll have to deal with here in the next weeks,” Martz said. “I don’t know what happened, what transpired, so I don’t feel comfortable making any comments about Leonard’s situation whatsoever.”
