FSU linebacker tasered by cops

Starting Florida State linebacker A.J. Nicholson was tasered and arrested by Tallahassee police after the All-American candidate hid from police in the bushes of an under construction apartment complex.

According to the police reports, Nicholson fled a Tallahassee bar when officers tried to eject him. Two patrol officers later saw Nicholson hide in the apartment complex. When he did not respond to their orders, officers used a Taser to subdue Nicholson and arrested him.

Nicholson, who was charged with misdemeanor resisting arrest without violence and released on $150 bond, is already in a pretrial intervention program over his February DUI arrest.
