McClain Arrested for Signature on Traffic Ticket: Raiders Linebacker 'Falsely Accused' for Signing Name 'Fu## Y'all' over Tinted Windows Citation

Reports confirm that Oakland Raiders linebacker Rolando McClain was arrested in Alabama hometown on Tuesday (Jan. 8) for providing a profane and false signature on a traffic ticket. Apparently McClain was pulled over by a Decatur policeman and handed a citation for his overly-tinted windows... but the NFL star wouldn't corporate. Instead of providing the officer with his proper identification, McClain signed the ticket with "Fu## Y'all" - he was then promptly arrested and later released on a $1,000 bail. According to McClain, he was "falsely accused" by a "corrupt" system and the police were definitely just out to get him.

According to several reports, McClain's vehicle was pulled over in Decatur, AL on Tuesday because of illegal "overly dark window tinting." That's when McClain got angry and came up with his whole "the police are conspiring against me" theory.

When law enforcement asked McClain to hand over a driver's license and proof of insurance, the Oakland Raiders star refused, bluntly telling the officer, "You know who I am." When McClain went to sign the actual citation, he wrote "Fu## Y'all" instead of his actual name. When police asked one final time for McClain to sign his name properly, he responded with, "That is my name."

McClain was arrested and booked in jail for misdemeanors involving providing police with a fake name and the tinted windows violation. He was later released on a $1,000 cash bail.

Apparently McClain attempted to hand over a doctor's note at the station which stated that the dark tint was necessary due to the 23-year-old's extreme photosensitivity... but because it wasn't written out on a proper prescription form, the police wouldn't accept it.

When exiting City Hall, McClain told reporters for the Decatur Daily, "I'm falsely accused of everything... It's corrupt. It's terrible."

According to Lieutenant John Crouch, if McClain had just signed the ticket properly, he would have been on his merry way instead of being handcuffed and dragged to the police station.

This is not McClain's first run-in with the law... in December 2011, the NFL star was arrested in Decatur and charged with third-degree assault, menacing, reckless endangerment, and discharging a firearm inside the city limits. The case was dropped in November 2012 when the victim decided to no longer press charges.
