They found that its Arkansas plates had expired a year earlier and one officer smelled alcohol on Foley's breath, Hassen said.As officers prepared to write a ticket and have the vehicle towed, Hassen said Foley became belligerent.Foley walked away and returned several times to threaten the officers. Police eventually told Foley he was under arrest. When an officer grabbed Foley, he "tensed up" and resisted before he was taken into custody, Hassen said.Foley, an eight-year NFL veteran, led the team with 10 sacks in 2004, his first with the Chargers, but he was slowed by an abdominal injury last season and had 4½ sacks.San Diego police arrested Chargers backup linebacker Shaun Phillips on April 14 on a charge of resisting arrest after he scuffled with a patrol officer downtown.AP NEWSThe Associated Press News ServiceCopyright 2006, The Associated Press, All Rights Reserved Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
