Lakers guard Alex Caruso was arrested for possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia, according to Texas A&M police. The charges are both misdemeanors, as he has since been released.
Caruso tried boarding a flight out of the Easterwood Airport in College Station, Texas, which is located on school property, but the Transportation and Security Administration found a herb grinder that contained marijuana when they searched his bags, according to Lt. Bobby Richardson of the university police department.
Caruso is a native of the area and Texas A&M alum, as he’ll be entering unrestricted free agency this offseason. It has been previously reported that he wants to stay with the Lakers, as he loves playing with LeBron James.
