frisco, Tex.-The Myles Jack arrest unfolded early Tuesday after police responded to a welfare check at a Frisco home. Authorities say the former NFL linebacker was involved in a deadly-conduct case and a separate firearm-discharge incident tied to the scene.
Frisco Police were dispatched around 5:40 a.m. to a residence in the 2400 block of Haft River Road following a welfare-check request. Upon arrival, officers reported hearing gunshots coming from inside the residence.
Law enforcement sealed the area and evacuated nearby homes as a precaution while investigators secured the scene. Police described a sequence in which someone broke a second-story window before a man, later identified as Jack, exited the home and fell to the ground.
Jack, 30, was taken into custody shortly after 7 a.m. and transported to a local hospital for treatment of minor injuries sustained from the fall.
The Associated charges are deadly conduct: discharge of a firearm (third-degree felony) and discharge of a firearm (Class A misdemeanor), according to the police release.Online jail records on Wednesday did not immediately show whether Jack remained in custody or had posted bail. It also wasn’t clear whether he has legal portrayal at this time.
Police reported no other occupants were inside the home at the time, and it was not immediately clear who requested the welfare check.
