Raiders LB Aldon Smith detained after car incident with cops

ALAMEDA, Calif. -- Suspended Oakland Raiders linebacker Aldon Smith, who is hoping to be reinstated by the NFL this month, was detained by San Francisco police Thursday morning after a vehicle in which he was a passenger ran into a police cruiser, KTVU reported.

SFPD Officer Giselle Talkoff told ESPN she could not confirm any names of those involved, but she said a 25-year-old female was driving and was being investigated for sobriety; she also said one adult male was "detained" for public intoxication and "should be released when he is sober" and that a third passenger was "cooperative" and released at the scene.
