Koren Robinson arrested
Vikings receiver jailed on suspicion of DWI while returning to Mankato training camp

Vikings starting receiver Koren Robinson was arrested late Tuesday night on his way back to training camp in Mankato, Minn., on suspicion of drunken driving, according to a St. Peter, Minn., police official.

Sgt. Loren Jansen of the St. Peter Police Department said Robinson was arrested at 10:46 p.m., for "driving while impaired" and is being held at Nicollet County Jail in St. Peter.

Jansen said multiple charges are pending, and a report has not been filed yet. "I won't be able to tell you a lot, other than that he was arrested for driving while impaired," Jansen said, "and he is incarcerated at this time."

Vikings officials and Robinson's agent, Alvin Keels, could not be reached for comment early this morning.

A Mankato police official confirmed that they assisted the St. Peter police department in making the arrest. Jansen said county attorney Mike Riley would handle the formal complaint this morning.

Vikings players were expected to report back to the players' dorm at Minnesota State Mankato by 11 p.m. They had been given Tuesday off after a 16-13 exhibition loss to Oakland Monday night at the Metrodome.

Robinson, 26, is in his second season with the Vikings, and he faces a potential yearlong suspension from the NFL because of past substance abuse issues. The ninth overall pick in the 2001 NFL draft by the Seattle Seahawks, Robinson was released by the club in June 2005 after he was charged with driving under the influence and reckless driving the previous month. He also had been suspended four games in 2004 for violating the league's substance abuse policy.

After making the Pro Bowl last season as a kickoff return, Robinson signed a three-year, deal worth $12.7 million during the offseason.

He was projected as the Vikings' top receiver, but his status is now in doubt because of this arrest.

Here's a bonus for the kiddies.

I see what you did there...maybe Marvin is trying to be like Joe. He's just trying to hide his talented players in jail so he doesn't have to cut them.

Koren certanily sounded like he was trying to get his life back in order, and this cannot be good news.

However, Driving While Impaired is not necessarily as bad as DUI. It doesn't say what the impairment was related to.

It might have been sleep. He was probably just tired. Really, really, ultra tired and was falling asleep at the wheel. My 2 cents

Hmmmm...anyone else find it suspicious that the Sgt. of the police dept. has the same last name as a football player who happens to play for the team that lost to the Seahawks last year in the playoffs....?

'Hey cousin Loren, wanna help me out....?'

Crazyhorse is on vaca this week. I'm filling in. Bush actually ordered the arrest of Robinson. I know it, I just can't prove it.

He was arrested near the White House, by the Secret Service. I think there are poll numbers to back that up.

Excellent job, Joebag. I would never have known it wasn't CH if you hadn't pointed that out. Kudos! :lol:
