Middle of the day too that's crazy
Within 90 minutes after game ended it looks by timeframe. Maybe even less… after being reported victim getting to hospital and then taking him into custody.

Of course they let him play the game before arresting him.
Could you imagine if it was during the game? "Here we are, 3rd and 1, with Kamara in the backfield...and obvious running situation...and Kyler calls timeout. Wait, what's this? Kamara has been sent to the sideline and there are police there now talking to him."

Where did you see that? Based on time frame on press release that would be beyond bizarre.

that would be a first. but with the way things go in the NFL these days, that feels inevitable at some point

Las Vegas police ID’d Saints’ Kamara as felony suspect before Pro Bowl​

Police learned Saturday that New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara was a suspect in a pre-dawn beating of a man at a Las Vegas nightclub, but did not arrest Kamara until after Sunday’s NFL Pro Bowl, a Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department spokesman acknowledged Monday.

The alleged victim in the attack was treated for facial injuries at a Las Vegas hospital, where he told patrol officers that the incident occurred about 10 hours earlier, according to a police department statement.

“There was a delay in reporting due to the victim receiving treatment,” the statement said.

The name of the victim, his hometown and a motive for the alleged attack won't be made public immediately, Officer Larry Hadfield said.

Kamara, one of the top running backs in the NFL, is charged with felony battery resulting in substantial bodily harm.

Detectives went to the Cromwell hotel-casino, home to the rooftop Drai’s After Hours club on the Las Vegas Strip, to identify Kamara, but did not immediately contact him, Hadfield said.

“It was known that (Kamara) would be participating in the Pro Bowl,” the department statement said.


Kamara was interviewed and arrested at Allegiant Stadium after Sunday’s game, which started at noon local time, and taken to the Clark County Detention Center.

Alvin Kamara was arrested after the Pro Bowl, at Allegiant Stadium

The Pro Bowl ended at 2:38 local time in Las Vegas. Eighteen minutes later, police were reading Saints running back Alvin Kamara his Miranda rights, inside Allegiant Stadium.

Based on the full police report, a copy of which PFT has obtained and stadium, Kamara was arrested and interviewed by police at the stadium after the game ended. He agreed to waive his rights and speak to police.

Images from surveillance video make it clear that it’s him. Other details in the report (including credit-card transactions) place Kamara at the scene. Also, Kamara pointed himself out in photos taken that night, presumably by surveillance cameras.

Kamara told police that the victim, Darnell Greene, called one of Kamara’s friend’s “ugly” and said to Kamara, “I’ll whoop your ass, too.” Kamara said that he saw a fight break out next to him, and that he saw Greene get punched. Kamara admitted to throwing “a couple punches, thinking the guy was running away.” Kamara said he didn’t remember whether he punched Greene while Greene was on the ground.

Fourth, the report indicates that the video contradicts Kamara’s version of the events. Kamara said he punched Greene as he was running away. The video shows that Greene had been punched by someone with Kamara, and “then Kamara immediately attacked” Greene.

As Simms and I explained on Monday’s #PFTPM (Tuesday’s PFT Live), Kamara could be in extra-deep trouble with the league over this. It’s one thing for a player to run afoul of the law on his own time. Kamara was in Las Vegas on NFL business. While he was technically doing his own thing a day before the game, the league surely won’t take kindly to a player being involved in this kind of thing while in Las Vegas for a league event.

To make matters worse, Kamara’s alleged misbehavior resulted in police showing up at a league event to make an arrest. The powers-that-be can’t be happy about that.

Still, it’s one of the practical problems of holding an event like the Pro Bowl in Las Vegas. Unlike Hawaii, where the NFL players are basically off to themselves, players in Las Vegas will intermingle with non-players. And if a non-player decides to say or do something to prove a player, there could be a problem.

Kamara definitely has a problem, both with the authorities and with the authority of the Commissioner.

What has really got me with this whole episode is the fact that Kamara seems to have his own posse with him. That is bad news.

Bingo, I'm tired of being right about the NFL. Once again the NFL's long reaching grasp allows Kamara to have his day in the limelight before being arrested. Sounds like celebrity privilege by LVPD. Would any of us be afforded the same privilege by the authorities if we had committed the same act and the police knew where to find us?
