Police arrested a man Wednesday and authorities charged him with shooting former National Football League quarterback Anthony Wright in North Carolina, according to a Concord Police Department press release.

William Hooker Jr. was arrested in the shooting of Anthony Wright.

Hooker was released on 150,000 bond and is due in court Monday, according to the release. Details of his capture were not released.

Wright, 43, was found early Monday with "multiple gunshot wounds to his body" by Concord Police Department officers who were responding to a report of gunshots, the depart said in a statement.

After interviewing witnesses at the scene, investigators determined that Wright had gotten into a "verbal altercation" with his girlfriend's ex-boyfriend who had showed up at the house to drop off his daughter. "An argument ensued and shots were fired", police said in a release. He started 14 games during that time and posted a 7-7 record with 2,781 passing yards, 15 touchdowns and 17 interceptions. He finished his college career as the No. 3 passer in program history with 5,641 yards and 38 touchdowns. He later joined the Dallas Cowboys (2000-2001), Baltimore Ravens (2002-2005) and Cincinnati Bengals (2006) before finding his way to the Giants in 2007.

Since 2016, Wright has been training young athletes in the Charlotte region.
