Scottsdale, Arizona – A’s catcher Bruce Maxwell was arrested by the Scottsdale police yesterday for allegedly pointing a gun at a female food delivery worker. He was booked on charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and disorderly conduct. The A’s are disappointed with the news and are investigating the situation but had no further comments about Maxwell at this time.

It was a rough week for Maxwell as he claimed that he was refused service by a waiter at a restaurant in his hometown of Harvest, Alabama. He said the waiter recognized him as the first major league player to kneel during the playing of the national anthem. The restaurant found another waiter to serve them. However, the restaurant claimed they refused to service to an individual with the Maxwell party as he did not have proper identification.
