MINNEAPOLIS -- Minnesota Vikings cornerback Cedric Griffin was freed on $50 bail after being arrested early Sunday in downtown Minneapolis and charged with misdemeanor disorderly conduct, authorities said.
Griffin, 24, was released from the Hennepin County jail at 4:45 a.m.
Two witnesses told KSTP-TV that the Vikings cornerback was thrown out of the Spin nightclub for not pulling up his pants. The club has a dress code requiring that pants not sag below the waist.
The witnesses said Griffin then had a dustup with bouncers and police before being taken away in handcuffs.
A court appearance for Griffin is scheduled Friday.
A Vikings team spokesman declined comment.
