Prospect Brandon Laird Arrested Following Brawl

Written by Greg Fertel | 01 January 2010

Marc Carig reports that both Gerald and Brandon Laird were arrested following a fight that took place at U.S. Airways Arena during the Suns-Celtics game. While catcher Gerald was cited for assault, Laird was only arrested for disorderly conduct.

Honestly, this doesn't seem like a big deal to me. It sounds like Gerald Laird was the one in the fight and the 22-year-old Brandon Laird couldn't help but get involved. I know I would be involved if my brother was in a fight right next to me.
