Denver Wideout Arrested

Heyden said Marshall was arrested about 10:30 p.m. Monday in the 8500 block of Gold Peak Lane at the Palomino Park Apartments in Highlands Ranch.
Jameelah Watley, 25, of Lithonia, Ga., called police stating she and Marshall had gotten into a fight. She was trying to leave by taxi, but Marshall blocked the taxi's exit with his late-model Dodge Charger.
