The New Orleans Police Department reportedly obtained an arrest warrant for NFL player Odell Beckham Jr. after a video surfaced that shows him spanking a security guard on the butt in the locker room after Monday’s national championship game. The video shows the former LSU and current Cleveland Browns wide receiver slapping a male officer’s behind in the LSU team’s locker room at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome. The officer had reportedly scolded LSU players for smoking cigars during their post-game celebration in the locker room when Beckham was seen slapping him. A simple battery warrant was signed by a judge Thursday morning, a law enforcement source said, adding that authorities initially sought a misdemeanor sexual battery charge warrant, but it was declined by a judge. If convicted, Beckham could face up to six months in prison and a maximum fine of $1,000.
