Los Angeles Rams running back Tre Mason had an encounter with police last month that reportedly ended with him being ordered to undergo a psychological evaluation.
Police were called to Mason’s home in Florida on July 23 after his family reported that the 22-year-old had his latest in a string of “bizarre and angry outbursts.” TMZ obtained the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office police report that was filed following that incident, and it states that it was Mason’s mother who called. She claimed Tre was “acting unusual and making irrational statements.”
When police arrived, they say Mason threatened to call the White House and have them all fired. Mason also supposedly made statements about Al Qaeda and had a laceration on his hand that he refused medical attention for. Police noticed a hole had been punched in the wall of Mason’s bedroom and a vase and lamp were broken.
The officer who filed the police report wrote that he does not believe Mason is in the right frame of mind to be making decisions for himself.
“I believe that Trence does not have the [redacted] ability to make decisions at this time and therefore he was transported to [redacted] where he was treated for the laceration and admitted for evaluation under the [redacted],” the report stated.
Police have reportedly been called to Mason’s home at least five times since March. Prior to that, he was arrested and had several charges filed against him.
Over the weekend, Rams coach Jeff Fisher revealed that Mason has not shown up to training camp and no one has heard from him. The team is concerned about the former Auburn star’s well-being. You can read Fisher’s full comments on the situation here.
