Uh-oh, Okobi

Steeler Chukky Okobi arrested
From The Tribune-Review

Steelers backup center Chukky Okobi faces a hearing April 13 in Belmont County, Ohio, on charges of speeding and driving with a suspended license, a spokesman for the Ohio State Highway Patrol said Friday.

Okobi was pulled over Sunday, April 2, on Interstate 70 near St. Clairsville after troopers spotted him driving 80 miles per hour in an area where the speed limit is 65, police Lt. Rick Zwayer said. When troopers checked Okobi's Pennsylvania driver's license, they found it had been suspended, Zwayer said.

A Steelers spokesman could not be reached for comment. Okobi, the heir apparent to Pro Bowl center Jeff Hartings, signed a contract extension last month that keeps him with the team through 2009.

Mmmmm, very naughty, Chukky! You should know that those Ohio troopers are the worst.
