Shawne Williams

Pacers Forward Has New Brush With Law

Williams' Passenger Arrested

An Indiana Pacers forward involved in two brushes with the law since September 2007 was involved in a third incident Friday.

Carmel police pulled over Shawne Williams on 96th Street on seat belt and window tinting violations.

Williams was not cited, but his passenger, Darrell Smith 21, was arrested on a marijuana possession charge.

Smith, who is from Tennessee, was also cited on a seat belt violation.

In 2007, Williams was found guilty of driving without a license. His passenger, an associate from Tennessee, was found guilty of marijuana possession.

In February, Gary Bohanon was arrested while leaving Williams' home. He was being sought on a murder charge in Tennessee.

Pacers President Larry Bird released a statement on Saturday that sounded ominous for Williams' future with the team.

"We are extremely upset and hugely disappointed he once again has put himself in a position that jeopardizes Shawne's future as a member of the Indiana Pacers," Bird said. "I plan to meet with Shawne as soon as possible to discuss further."
