She was hit with two felony counts of obtaining a controlled substance by fraud or forgery, plus two misdemeanor counts of simple possession of a Schedule IV controlled substance. She was held on a $20,000 bond in connection with the felony charges. According to the arrest warrant, authorities claim Montana obtained alprazolam -- the generic form of Xanax -- from Walgreens by filling prescriptions written using a doctor's allegedly stolen DEA registration and medical provider ID.
He’s also now 28 years old, a father to twin boys and an NBA veteran who doesn’t have to hide his beloved Mike & Ike’s anymore. Before every game, Hart is at his locker with a family size of the candy and a bag of popcorn. It’s a pregame meal, devoid of nutritional value but bursting with fun, that Hart refuses to skip. Wednesday in Utah, for instance, Hart ordered an Uber Eats delivery from Walgreens to the Knicks locker room for Mike & Ike’s.
Brown was waiting for a citation for being double-parked across two accessible parking spots outside a Walgreens on Jan. 26, 2018, and filed a complaint stating he was unlawfully arrested with a Taser and because he is African-American. He was not charged in the incident. Brown filed a lawsuit formally in June 2018. In September 2019, the city of Milwaukee offered Brown a $400,000 settlement that did not include an admission of liability.
On January 26, 2018, I was on my way home from a friend’s place when I ran into Walgreens for three minutes. When I did, I parked across two handicapped spots. I could have parked in one spot but it was late at night and the parking lot was empty. I figured, I’m just running inside. What’s the worst that could happen? When I came out and headed back to my car, a police officer was approaching at the same time and I didn’t see him at first. He asked me if I had a driver’s license. As I tried to open the door he shoved me back and I moved his hand off me. At that point I knew things might escalate and it wouldn’t just be a simple ticket.

Just when you thought Sterling Brown's night couldn't get any worse ... we've now learned the NBA player was on a 1st date with a woman when he was tased in a Walgreens parking lot. TMZ Sports obtained the file and video from the internal investigation into the Jan. 26 incident -- which made national news for the way Milwaukee PD officers aggressively handled the Bucks player, whose only mistake was parking in a handicap space.
But Langley said in a court filing in federal court Friday night that Brown was at least partially to blame for what happened on Jan. 26 during his encounter with police outside a Walgreens at around 2 a.m. "The injuries and damages sustained by the plaintiff, if any, were caused in whole or in part by their own acts or omissions," the court filing reads.
The Milwaukee police officer who first confronted Milwaukee Bucks rookie Sterling Brown outside a Walgreens in January was suspended for two days, the Journal Sentinel has learned. Two supervisors who later arrived, escalating the situation, were suspended for 10 and 15 days, sources said. Several other officers were reprimanded.
The Milwaukee Police Department apologized Wednesday and said officers who "acted inappropriately" have been disciplined after an internal investigation over an incident in which a stun gun was used on Milwaukee Bucks rookie Sterling Brown after he was questioned over a potential parking violation in January. Body camera video of the incident was released by the police shortly after Milwaukee Police Chief Alfonso Morales' news conference. Criminal charges against Brown were not pursued, Morales said in a statement that was read to gathered media. "I am sorry this incident escalated to this level," said Morales, who did not take questions from reporters. Brown, then 22, was arrested in a Walgreens parking lot at about 2 a.m. local time on Jan. 26.
A police spokesman did not name Brown but released the information in response to a Journal Sentinel reporter's inquiry about an incident involving Brown. According to the statement: Police were doing a business check about 2 a.m. Friday at the Walgreens at the corner of S. 26th St. and W. National Ave. when they saw a vehicle parked across two handicap parking spaces. Officers spoke with a 22-year-old man about the situation and, during the incident, a Taser was used and the man was arrested.

On the morning of Game 2 in Toronto, the confident 36-year-old veteran, making his 11th appearance in the postseason, tried to explain how one acquires such late-game poise. His explanation implied he’s motivated to display a lot more of it in this series, especially in the frenzied Air Canada Centre atmosphere where he’s playing the villain role. “It’s just in the DNA,” quipped Pierce to a large group of reporters, trying to shed light on a question he’s been asked numerous times over his 15-year NBA career. “Everybody don’t have it. Everybody isn’t born with it. You can’t buy it at Costco or Walgreens, it’s in the DNA. It’s in there. There’s nothing I can do to let it go. I can’t lose it. I can’t break it. It’s in there.”

“You’re associating happiness with money. And the last time I checked, there was a CVS or Walgreens on every block or corner. And there’s a prescription aisle right in the back and every time you go to the hospital, how long do you have to wait to see the doctor because everybody in America has something. Some people have depression or suffer from headaches or something. Everybody needs a pill for something nowadays, and they’re coming up with new names for new things every day. For me, I don’t think being bipolar was my issue. I don’t think it ever was.”
A prospect walks into a small hotel room, a room that has had the bed removed in favor of a round table and offers Walgreens-purchased water as the only refreshments. The prospect sees two headboards on the wall, but no beds. He sees a table, half glasses of water and eight people (Jerry West, Bob Myers, Travis Schlenk, Kirk Lacob, Mark Jackson, Larry Riley, Larry Harris and Speedy Claxton) ready to interrogate.
