Marcus Vick Jailed For Contempt In Virginia
NEWPORT NEWS, Va. - Former Virginia Tech and Miami Dolphins
player Marcus Vick will spend at least 10 days in jail for ignoring
court orders.
Newport News Sheriff's spokeswoman Kathleen Carey says the
younger brother of Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Michael Vick
reported to jail on Sunday.
A judge ordered him to spend 10 days in jail for contempt of
court after failing to appear at two court dates on a charge of
driving on a suspended license.
Carey says once Vick serves his time there, he will be
transferred to Virginia's Montgomery County, where he is wanted on
a warrant for failing to appear in a civil case.
Vick was dropped from Virginia Tech in 2006 and released from
the Dolphins a year later. His attorney didn't immediately return
messages seeking comment.
