Marion Barber reportedly flashed loaded gun in church

Marion-Barber-Violates-Jason-Garretts-Dress-CodeRemember Marion Barber? Sure you do, he was that mediocre running back who had a couple of decent seasons on some mediocre Dallas Cowboys teams a few years ago. But from this point forward, feel free to remember him as the guy who flashed a loaded gun in church.

Barber was arrested back in June and held for a mental evaluation after an incident that took place at a church near his home in Mansfield, Tex. According to a police report obtained by TMZ, that “incident” was Barber flashing a loaded 9mm handgun inside the church. He also had three magazines and 51 hollow-point rounds on him.

Police say Barber seemed disoriented when they arrived at the church and said he “did not know what year it was or where he was at.” A pastor told police the former NFL back was speaking nonsensically prior to their arrival and removed his jacket to show his gun to the church-goers.

Neighbors told TMZ they have not seen Barber near his home since the incident. That’s some pretty bizarre stuff. We have no idea why he would feel the need to go to church strapped, but it’s obvious we don’t understand everything that’s going on with him.
