Ex-Ravens RB Collins facing drug, gun charges

OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- Former Baltimore Ravens running back Alex Collins faces narcotics and gun charges after being released on $7,500 bail early Saturday morning.

Collins, 24, was released around 12:30 a.m. Saturday on three chargers after an initial hearing at a Baltimore County courthouse: possession of more than 10 grams of marijuana, intent to distribute marijuana and possession of a handgun in a vehicle.

The Ravens waived Collins on Friday afternoon, hours after he crashed his black Chevrolet Corvette into a tree about a mile from the Ravens team facility. Officers found Collins asleep in the driver sleep and detected an odor of marijuana inside the vehicle, according to police.
