Roy Finch was released from custody on Monday afternoon after posting a US$6,000 bond for allegedly assaulting a police officer, resisting arrest and possessing marijuana.

According to a police report, the Calgary Stampeders kick returner was arrested in Edmond, Okla., early Sunday morning after police were called to an apartment complex because a car had been parked and running for over an hour.

The report alleges that the car smelled like marijuana and that when officers attempted to place Finch in handcuffs he “swung at” one of the officers and ran away.

The police report confirmed that officers “deployed a Taser, hitting Finch between the shoulder blades” and his mugshot showed bruising and several cuts on his face.
