Video of Rondo's arrest

Rajon Rondo was arrested on January 28 in Jackson County, Indiana, after being pulled over for not displaying a rear license plate on his Tesla. During the stop, officers discovered marijuana and a firearm in his vehicle, leading to charges of unlawful firearm possession and drug paraphernalia. Bodycam footage revealed officers recognizing Rondo as a former NBA player, with one officer expressing surprise at his identity during the arrest. In September, Rondo reached a plea deal, resulting in probation but a misdemeanor gun charge on his record. He is prohibited from carrying firearms due to a 2022 restraining order stemming from a domestic incident involving his ex-partner. Rondo, a two-time NBA champion, is best known for his tenure with the Boston Celtics and played 16 seasons in the league.
