NFL star Odell Beckham has warrant out for his arrest after slapping a security guard on the butt during a LSU locker room celebration.
The security guard was of the Mercedes-Benz Superdome security team, trying to stop playing from smoking cigars in the locker room. During the interaction, the former LSU WR can be seen on video smacking the security on the butt. In the docs, the guard said he had to fight the urge to get violent with Odell … and called the NOPD just a day after the incident to press charges.
Authorities originally wanted Beckham to face misdemeanor sexual battery charges, but a judge denied that and instead, agreed to simple battery. If convicted, 27-year-old Beckham faces up to 6 months in jail and a $1,000 fine.
During that same National Championship celebration, Odell was seen handing out cash to LSU players during the field celebration. The offense has been reported to the NCAA by LSU and could come with serious punishments.
