Jadeveon Clowney arrested for trespassing days before signing with Dallas Cowboys

A report from the Rock Hill, South Carolina police department shows Clowney was arrested just days before the announcement, on Sept. 12, after trying to park in an apartment complex parking lot that was not public.

Officers were monitoring the parking lot of Dunbar Place Apartments after property management asked for police help because the complex had problems with nonresidents parking in the lot during football games. York County District Three stadium is across the street from the apartment complex.

The police report states Clowney was stopped while entering the parking lot and said he was probably going to the football game, but that his aunt lived in the apartment complex.

Officers said Clowney became argumentative with them when he was told he could not park there. Clowney told officers he was going to visit his aunt, but officers said he would still not be allowed to park there and said his vehicle would be towed if he left it there.

The report states Clowney continued to speak over the officer as the officer was issuing a trespass warning and then refused to give officers his identification when asked.

Clowney did not try to leave the parking lot, but continued to argue with officers and continued to not give them his identification, the report states.

Clowney was then arrested for trespassing and failure to identify and taken to jail. The York County Sheriff's Office said Clowney was not booked.

Clowney signs with the Dallas Cowboys

The 32-year-old Clowney signed a one-year deal with the Cowboys reportedly worth $3.5 million.

Team owner Jerry Jones announced the deal after the Cowboys defeated the New York Giants in week two.
