Lynch's Lawyer comments on Arrest

BUFFALO,NY(WIVB) - M. Gerald Schwartzbach, the lawyer that is representing Marshawn Lynch in his recent arrest on a weapons charge in California spoke to News 4 Sports on Monday.

He said Lynch was embarrassed about the arrest, and wants to resolve it quickly.

Schwartzbach, who has represented Lynch in the past said he did not have complete information as he did not see the police report yet.  What he did tell News 4 Sports is that he didn't think anyone in the car was doing anything illegal at the time.  He went on to say the car, which is owned by Lynch, was not pulled over by police.  He did not know why police were searching the vehicle.

"There was no violence or threat of violence" at the time of the arrest, said Schwartzbach.  He went on to say "I don't believe police found a firearm on him.  I understand one was found in the vehicle that was owned by Marshawn," Schwartzbach said.  He also said Lynch does not have a license to carry a firearm.

An April 2nd court date in Los Angeles, California is set for Lynch's case.
