ROFL...you crack me up.

And the domestic violence charge?

ENTENNIAL - Denver Bronco' Richard Quinn was arrested on suspicion of physical abuse and restraining his girlfriend on Labor Day.

Deputies responded to the 10100 block of Inverness Main St. after the victim called from that area at 12:34 pm.

Tiffany Merritt, 22, told deputies that she and her live-in boyfriend Quinn got into an argument. She claims he grabbed her, shook her to the ground, and took the house phone out of her hand while she was calling 911.

Merritt also told deputies that Quinn took her cell phone and told her that she was not going to call the police. Merritt says she then ran to a neighbor's house to call 911.

Quinn admitted to police at the scene that he took the phone out of Tiffany's hand so she couldn't call the police.

Quinn also stated that he only grabbed Tiffany when she started hitting him in the face. During the investigation deputies did not see any visible signs that Quinn had been struck in the face or head area.

Quinn was taken into custody and transported to the Sullivan Detention Facility where he was booked in on charges of:

• Harassment
• Obstruction of Telephone Services
• Domestic Violence

No bond has been set and quinn was expected to remain in custody overnight. Copyright © 2009, KDVR-TV

“”This was an unfortunate personal situation,” Schaffer said. “”However I’m very proud the way Richard handled this delicate situation by diffusing what otherwise could have been a potentially dangerous situation.

“”When all the facts come out, people will find out Richard’s done nothing wrong. Richard’s No. 1 concern right now is the welfare of his daughter and to avoid any negative light brought to the Denver Broncos, Richard and his family.”

“Richard did everything he was taught to do (through various NFL rookie programs that deal with potential off-field situations) to diffuse an otherwise irrational person and he’s the person sitting in jail,” Schaffer said.

Doing everything right is taking the phone away and making her run to the neighbor's to call the cops? Guess I had the wrong idea of how to handle these situations.

Yeppers, adults that grew up as military kids never have criminal issues. I'm sure the arrest is no big deal & was probably a case of "mistaken identity." :spock:

McDaniels made it a point to only draft high character guys this year, and obviously Richard Quinn is one of them. He is not a problem child. I guarantee this is the last time you will hear his name in the police blotter.

I seem to remember Bowlen saying the same thing for the past few years...McDaniels has been so spot on this offseason, I'm sure every one of his draft picks will be probowlers soonROFL I'm not saying this kid is guilty or innocent, but your blind faith is reeruned.

Right behind their soon to be Probowler Neckbeard AbOrton. :doh!:

It's only his first arrest. Marshall has the cops at his house every other night and the Bronco fans still pooh-pooh that. Quinn won't get any traction.

It was Labor Day. No one was minding the store.

By the way, something like half of all state employees were furloughed today, so he might still be there.

Since he's a tight end, maybe he went to jail to get some football tips from Clarence Kay.

I thought they traded up to get that 5-9 corner?

They traded up for that midget corner and this guy. I just read a quote somewhere from him and he said something along the lines of "I didn't expect to get drafted this high" after the draft.

Wow @ trading back up into the 2ND ROUND to get a blocking TE.

God that franchise went from cheaters who won-to-completely inept losers.

I'll bet Quinn was just trying to keep her from driving drunk.

A one-armed man did it.
