Ra'Shede Hageman Arrested on Charge of Driving While Impaired

Timothy RappJun 3, 2018

Free-agent defensive tackle Ra'Shede Hageman, who last was with the Atlanta Falcons in Sept. 2017, was arrested Saturday and charged with a count ofย fourth-degree misdemeanor DWI, according to ESPN.com.

Per that report, the 27-year-oldย Hageman was released on bail after 90 minutes and has a hearing scheduled for June 21.ย 

Hageman was arrested in Hennepin County, Minnesota. It was his second legal incident in the past two years after heย was charged with "interfering with a call for emergency help, battery family violence and cruelty to children in the third degree" inย March 2016, perย Paul Walshย of theย Star Tribune.

According toย D. Orlando Ledbetterย of theย Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Hageman "pulled the hair of the mother of his child and pushed her down in the parking lot outside of her apartment, causing her to sustain lacerations on her left hand and elbow. Hageman then took her phone, preventing her from calling 911. This incident happened in front of the couple's child."

Heย pleaded guilty to misdemeanor charges in Aug. 2017 andย was placed on the NFL Commissioner's Exempt List before being suspended six games. The Falcons promptly cut him in September, though he worked out for the New England Patriots in early May, according toย Ian Rapoportย of NFL.com.

In three NFL seasons,ย Hagemanโ€”a former second-round pick by the Falconsโ€”appeared in 44 games, registering four sacks.
