Indiana tight end makes a big splash!

by Michele Hriciso

blakepowers.jpgIndiana tight end Blake Powers threw a water balloon into another car while stopped at a red light, hitting the driver in the head.

Funny, right? Apparently not to the off-duty police officer who was driving the other car. Powers was arrested and charged with misdemeanor battery. Not to mention driving next to a police officer while having fun.

Was it technically a crime? Yeah. But was it worth making an arrest on? Not to me it wasn’t.

So now Powers will have to go to court and get his slap on the wrist. An inconvenience, yes, but hopefully the judge remembers what it was like to be young and wanting to have a little fun. We all act stupid when we’re young, but there’s not always criminal intent behind it.
