Donte Whitner wants charges sidelined

BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) - Buffalo Bills Defensive Back, Donte Whitner wants his criminal case sidelined.

Whitner's attorney asked a judge in Cleveland to dismiss disorderly conduct charges through a probation program for first time offenders.

Whitner was arrested outside a Cleveland night club in April.

A hearing is scheduled for October.

All of this comes just a little after someone stole $400,000 in jewelry and other items from Whitner's home in Hamburg.
