Someone please catch me up. Was Kane arrested for a new thing or was he just charged for what happened in June?

Buffalo Sabres forward Evander Kane was charged with criminal trespass, disorderly conduct and harassment today in connection with an incident at a downtown Buffalo bar last month. http://sabres.buffalonews.com/2016/07/22/sabres-evander-kane-charged-with-misdemeanor-trespassing-in-bar-incident/

 

 

Buffalo Sabres forward Evander Kane was charged with criminal trespass, disorderly conduct and harassment today in connection with an incident at a downtown Buffalo bar last month.

 

Buffalo Police said Kane is charged with one misdemeanor count of criminal trespass and four counts of non-criminal harassment and one count of non-criminal disorderly conduct.

Kane is also charged with a violation of disorderly conduct, alleging that he created “hazardous/offensive condition.” His harassment charges allege that he engaged in “physical conduct” with alleged victims.

The allegations stem from an incident early on the morning of June 24 at the Bottoms Up bar, for encounters involving Kane, three women and a bouncer, sources familiar with the case told The Buffalo News.

Why does one need to be arrested when you voluntarily surrender? Sounds like grandstanding.

 

I'm not really sure of the need to cuff him outside the station.

 

But arrest leads to a few things, including an arraignment date and the right to bail.  So that step is necessary.

Couldn't agree more. No matter what you think of Kane, this seems like some grandstanding by the BPD. And, how does the camera just happen to be there?

Absolutely.  Totally gratuitous and obvious that they called the media ahead of time. 

 

They really must have absolutely nothing on him given the BS charge as well.  If his name were Joe Smith, there is no way he would have been treated like this (either the investigation, charges, or calling the media obviously).

BS charges or not, one of the three women or the bouncer involved has decided to press those bullschit charges. The police have a responsibility to respect that.

This topic is OLD. A NEW topic should be started unless there is a VERY SPECIFIC REASON to revive this one.
