49ers’ Deommodore Lenoir arrested for resisting peace officer in L.A.

The defensive back of San Francisco 49ers, Dedomyore Lenoir, was arrested Thursday afternoon in South Los Angeles. He was accused of having delayed and resisting a peace agent, an offense.

Another man, apparently a Lenoir companion, was arrested for possession of a firearm hidden in a vehicle, which is a crime.

According to the Los Angeles Police Service, the incident occurred around 5.30 p.m. on South Wilton Place block 4500. The police spotted Marcus Cunningham, 25, “frantically reaching” a gray Cadillac climbing. He then “locked the vehicle and moved away, seeming to hide smuggling”.

Cunningham threw the keys behind a door as the officers approaches, the LAPD told Times by e-mail, then “Lenoir recovered the keys, refused to return them and transmitted them to an unknown man who fled.”

After additional officers located the keys to a neighboring porch, the police opened the car and found “a semi-automatic firearm loaded in the central compartment, a glock loaded in an open compartment and narcotics,” said the LAPD.

According to the Information Center for detainees from the County Sheriff Department, Lenoir was released for his own commitment at 1:18 am on Friday and should appear before the Superior Court of the Superior on July 25. No communication or information on the court was available for Cunningham.

The 49ers published a statement saying that they are aware of the issue on Friday and “are in the process of gathering additional information”.

Lenoir, a former star of Los Angeles Squalian High who played four seasons in Oregon, was selected by the 49ers in the fifth round of the 2021 recovery. He signed a contract extension of $ 88 million over five years before the 2024 season.
