Ex-MLB All-Star Rafael Furcal reportedly arrested on felony charges after altercation with truck driver

Former MLB shortstop Rafael Furcal was arrested Wednesday in South Florida, according to the Associated Press.

The three-time All-Star reportedly turned himself in at Broward County jail on a warrant issued Monday and was quickly released on bond. He faces charges of aggravated battery with a deadly weapon and throwing a missile into public or private dwelling.

To be very clear, "missile" in this case means "a stone or other hard substance which would produce death or great bodily harm," per the Florida legislature's website. Authorities have provided few details about the incident in question.
