    Vlad Loves Disco...and Allegedly Punching Cops.

    According to various reports, former MLB all-star Vladimir Guerrero has run afoul of the law in the Dominican Republic. Per Dominican Today, there was an all-points bulletin issued for Guerrero on Tuesday due to an assault against a police officer and his involvement in a brawl at a nightclub.

    A native of the Dominican Republic, the 37-year-old Guerrero is currently a free agent after spending the 2011 season with Baltimore Orioles. According to Rafael Rojas, who covers the Colorado Rockies for Purple Row, Guerrero is in police custody in Bani. Rojas has been tweeting updates about the situation in the Dominican that reportedly involved some sort of altercation with an officer, a disco brawl and a late-night chase.

    At least he didnt hit a Judge on a beach. Its just a simple cop.

    Wow this is some weird info. Never would of thought Vlad would get up to this behavior after hearing over and over in the press on how much of a good guy he was and how everyone loves him.

    What a shame to see. I always liked the guy. He may have trouble adjusting to life without baseball.

    There are also numerous stories about him being a very serious drinker.

    Also one of his brothers and two cousins are involved, it would not surprise me to find out that one of them instigated the melee and Vlad was supporting family.

    Figured last year could have been a transition period for him, since neither Vlad or the O's showed much life with baseball.
