NFL free agent offensive lineman Duane Brown was arrested Saturday afternoon on a gun charge at the Los Angeles International Airport.
Brown, who last played for the Seattle Seahawks, had a concealed firearm in his luggage as he made his way through airport security, Fox News Digital can confirm.
The lineman attempted to go through TSA screening at the LAX's Terminal 6 on Saturday at around 2 p.m. before he was stopped, Los Angeles Airport Police Lt. Karla Rodriguez said in a statement to Fox News Digital.
