Steve Foley Shot by Police

Basileus777 · 01:28 PM

A San Diego Charger was shot Saturday morning by an off duty police officer. It happened around 3:30 Saturday morning..when an off duty Coronado police officer started following a man who was driving erratically. Police say the driver is Chargers linebacker Steve Foley.
The officer identified himself several times as a police officer, but Foley would not pull over. Foley then drove to his own neighborhood in Poway where he got out of the car and his girlfriend got behind the wheel. Police say Foley came at the officer who fired a warning shot. The woman then drove the car at the officer. The officer fired into the car, then shot Foley. But police say Foley kept coming, and the off duty officer shot him several more times. Foley was taken to Sharp Hospital for surgery. The woman was taken into custody. No charges have been filed yet. Steve Foley was arrested back in April for battery on a police officer and public drunkeness.

Wow. Hasn't Foley had problems with drinking before?

I'd like to think I would have sobered up pretty fast after the first time he shot me.

Not me.
If I'm gonna get shot, I don't want to be feeling ANY pain!

You were so drunk the first time I met you that I don't think you'd have missed a severed limb.

Here's a story from April:

Linebacker Steve Foley of the San Diego Chargers was arrested on charges of resisting arrest on Friday after police said he scuffled with officers.

Foley was also booked on charges of battery on a police officer and public drunkenness.

One of three officers involved in the struggle with the 6-foot-4, 265-pound linebacker suffered minor injuries, said police spokesman Gary Hassen.

Police were called early Friday morning on a report of an SUV, which turned out to be Foley's, parked the wrong way outside a hotel. 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.

"We take pride in being positive community citizens and leaders, and we take our profile in the community very seriously," Chargers president Dean Spanos said. "We are looking into these matters and we'll deal firmly with the situation at the appropriate time."

Shaun Phillips is their backup. He is pretty good (he had 7 sacks last year) , but he is not nearly as good against the run as Foley.

Well the officer was off duty maybe he was wearing a Raider jersey.

Cool! If we can talk their starting QB into doing the same thing, it will be like two bye weeks playing them this year.
