Former NBA player Darius Miles was arrested at Lambert-St. Louis International Airport around 3:30 p.m. Wednesday after being caught of attempting to bring a gun through security.
STL Today reports that TSA personnel discovered the weapon during an X-ray screening at the airport.
He was booked into St. Louis County jail on suspicion of unlawful use of a weapon.
Playing at East St. Louis High School in his young basketball career, Darius Miles was the 3rd overall pick in the 2000 NBA Draft by Los Angeles Clippers.
Despite his potentials, he became a journey man in the NBA --- he joined Los Angeles Clippers, Cleveland, Portland and Memphis. Miles failed to be in Charlotte Bobcats' roster in 2010.
During his stint with Memphis Grizzlies (2008-09), Miles was suspended for 10 games for violation of the league's substance abuse policy. He was arrested for marijuana possession and driving on a suspended license during a traffic stop back in May 2009.
