Cowboys release Lucky Whitehead; WR says he wasn't in Va. at time of alleged incident
According to the Prince William County Police Department, Whitehead was arrested at approximately 1:30 a.m. on June 22 after an employee at a Wawa convenience store noticed he left without paying for some items. Whitehead was charged with shoplifting/petit larceny -- under $200, a misdemeanor -- and then failed to show for his arraignment on July 6, which resulted in a failure to appear charge, according to Prince William County General Court records. Whitehead's agent, David Rich, told ESPN's Adam Schefter that the crime is a case of mistaken identity and Whitehead committed no crime, as he was not in Virginia when the incident occurred.
