According to reports, officers responded to The Highlands Apartments in Overland Park, and Gay was arrested and booked into the Johnson County Detention Center.

However, reports are that the charge might not be that serious, although classified as a domestic violence offense. According to police reports, Gay is accused of damaging a vacuum cleaner, humidifier, cellphone screen protector, door frame, and wall.

As of game day, he’s expected to play.

Gay’s Representative Speaks

The Kansas City Chiefs are aware of the incident; however, Maxx Lepselter, Gay’s agent, released a statement to confirm that no one was harmed physically and that the incident happened during an argument with his son’s mother.

“Willie was at his son’s house, visiting. He and the mother got into an argument during which he broke her vacuum. No one was touched, nothing happened beyond broken appliance,” Lepselter said.
“She called cops about it and they took him in on misdemeanor destruction of property of less than $1000. Likely just pays a fine and replaces vacuum. Nothing more, all should be resolved today with no further issues. We will confirm when resolved.”
