Ahmad Bradshaw Jailed

New York Giants running back Ahmad Bradshaw was being held over a probation violation at Southwest Virginia Regional Jail, as reported June 19, 2008. Though the exact charges were not disclosed, they may stem from a 2006 incident, in which the then-undergraduate stole a PlayStation 2 game from another Marshall University student at, and was sentenced to two years probation for petty larceny.MSNBC: Giants RB Ahmad Bradshaw held in Virginia jail
