Cavaliers guard indicted on weapons charges

Published November 3, 2009 5:00am ET



Cleveland Cavaliers guard Delonte West has been indicted on concealed weapons charges stemming from a September traffic stop during which police say they found a shotgun hidden in a guitar case strapped across his back and other guns in his possession.

The Brandywine native returned to the basketball court Saturday night after a tumultuous offseason delayed his return. On top of his Sept. 17 arrest in Prince George’s County on concealed weapons charges, West also has been battling bipolar disorder. Last week, as he missed the Cavaliers’ first three games, his wife filed a domestic violence report against him.
