There were reports the other day that New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez was involved in a jail altercation. Basically, he got into some kind of scuffle with another inmate.
From TMZ Sports:
"“Sources tell us the former New England Patriots tight end — who is usually segregated from the general population — was allowed to take a walk in an isolated hallway but somehow came into contact with another inmate. We’re told Hernandez recognized the other inmate and launched into an attack — beating the other man up pretty badly. Sources tell us Hernandez and the other man had been beefing all day long. One source says the other guy had been harassing Aaron nonstop. Clearly, Hernandez was pissed.”"
From the Associated Press, via Turn to 10.com:
