Update:

A latest report on Chandler Jones arrest says that police arrested him after he stole items from outside of his ex-girlfriend’s house.

Jones then proceeded to burn the items in his backyard, and went on to send her videos while doing it.

Jones was served with a temporary restraining order yesterday and immediately began sending the woman Snapchat messages, in violation of the order.

He was later seen on her home security cameras, and went to her house at least twice, according to the report.

Jones has already been released on bail.

The 4-time Pro Bowler was taken into custody and booked into the Clark County Detention Center in Nevada around midnight.

As of now, Jones remains behind bars, as reported by TMZ.

It’s unknown the exact circumstances leading to his arrest but according to TMZ, it appears that Chandler may have violated a protective order.

After the alleged violation , police officers stepped in and took him into custody.

TMZ’s says Jones cooperated with authorities during the arrest.

This happened after a wild day for Chandler on social media on Thursday, just hours before his arrest.

In a live video, Jones made some very bizarre and unverified allegations about Raiders coach Josh McDaniels and the death of his former Patriots teammate Aaron Hernandez, and then started crying hysterically.

Chandler Jones had been away from the Raiders since September 5 due to a reported dispute over access to the team’s facilities. He didn’t play a game this season for the 1-2 Raiders.

Earlier this week Jones claimed that he was involuntarily admitted to a mental health hospital and given medication against his wishes.
