SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (AP) Authorities say Arizona Coyotes forward Richard Panik has been arrested for trespassing for refusing to leave the entrance of a bar.
Scottsdale police say the 27-year-old Panik was arrested at the Bevvy the night of April 8, the day after the Coyotes’ season ended.
Police say Panik appeared to be intoxicated during his contact with officers.
He was booked into the Scottsdale City Jail and later released on a criminal citation.
In a statement Tuesday, Coyotes officials said they’re aware of the incident and still gathering information on it.
