UPDATE: Struggling for weeks, Everson Griffen had been asked to stay away from Vikings

Vikings defensive end Everson Griffen was involved in an incident Saturday at a downtown Minneapolis hotel in which he threatened to shoot someone, but there was no indication he had a gun and no arrest was made, KSTP-TV reported Monday.

Minneapolis Public Information Officer John Elder told the Pioneer Press that police responded to a 911 call and arrived at the Hotel Ivy at 1:26 p.m. Saturday to investigate a possible disturbance. Elder said a male was leaving, and police did not identify him because there was no evidence of a gun being present or there being any risk to public safety.

Elder said no arrest was made. He said Hotel Ivy officials did not want to press charges.

“We are aware of the situation involving Everson Griffen and certainly concerned by what we have heard,’’ Vikings general manager Rick Spielman said in a statement. “We are currently focused on Everson’s well-being and providing the appropriate support for him and his family.”

NFL Media reported that Griffen, a three-time Pro Bowl selection, has been dealing for weeks with a serious, personal health-related issue and is being evaluated at a Twin Cities Hospital.

Griffen on Friday had been ruled out of Sunday’s game against Buffalo at U.S. Bank Stadium because of a knee injury. He did not attend the 27-6 defeat, and Vikings coach Mike Zimmer offered only a limited explanation afterward of why not.

“He’s having a personal matter and I’m going to leave it at that,” Zimmer said.

Griffen did not attend a team walkthrough Monday. It was noted on the team’s injury report he was absent because of a knee injury and also a “not injury-related’’ issue. His status for Thursday’s game at the Los Angeles Rams is in question.

Regarding Saturday’s incident, KSTP reported that police dispatch audio archived online included a dispatcher saying a suspect said to hotel staff members that if someone wouldn’t let him into his room, he would shoot someone. The station reported that at one point hotel staff moved into a back office while Griffen was making his threats in the lobby.

KSTP first reported there is a police report of the incident but that Griffen’s name was redacted. Elder told the Pioneer Press the name was redacted because police never asked for identification of the individual, and Elder was unable to provide any confirmation of his name.

“The individual left and the Ivy Hotel folks were happy with the outcome, and that was the last of our contact with the individual,” Elder said. “There was no absolutely no gun that was either, a, seen, b, implicated or c, threatened.”
