Missouri suspends linebacker Marquis Booker following weekend arrest
Mar 17, 5:14 pm EDT

COLUMBIA, Mo. (AP)—Missouri linebacker Marquis Booker was suspended Monday following his arrest in which police said he threatened to “light the place up” and grabbed a handgun from his car during a parking lot argument.

The 20-year-old sophomore backup was arrested early Sunday outside an apartment complex on suspicion of unlawfully using a weapon and an underage liquor law violation, police said. He was released from the Boone County Jail after posting a $4,800 bond.

Booker thingyed the gun but did not point it at anyone, according to police. He drove off with four others as officers arrived. Officers found a loaded 9-millimeter Ruger handgun under the front passenger seat. Booker said the gun was his.

Booker could not immediately be reached for comment Monday.

Also in the car, and not arrested, were: wide receiver Jeremy Maclin, an All-American as a freshman; junior linebacker Sean Weathersthingy, the team’s leading tackler last season; a football recruit; and a female student.

Missouri finished the 2007 season with a 12-2 record and a No. 4 ranking in one of its most successful seasons. The Tigers began spring practice March 11.

COLUMBIA, Mo. (AP)—Missouri linebacker Marquis Booker was dismissed from the team Tuesday after the 20-year-old sophomore was arrested on a possible weapons violation last weekend.

Police said Booker threatened to “light the place up” and grabbed a handgun from his car during a parking lot argument outside an apartment complex. No shots were fired.

Two teammates who accompanied Booker after he drove off when police arrived early Sunday will not face any internal discipline. Police interviewed All-American receiver Jeremy Maclin and linebacker Sean Weathersthingy but did not arrest either athlete.

Booker was arrested on suspicion of unlawfully using a weapon and an underage liquor law violation.

He was suspended by coach Gary Pinkel on Monday,
