PJ Hairston does not learn. After having no charges placed on him following his arrest for possession of marijuana, he was charged on Sunday for speeding reckless driving reports the USA Today. Hairston was pulled over for going 93 in a 65 MPH zone.
This is the latest in a series of incidents that the young UNC forward has found himself in this summer. One might think that after an arrest scare, Hairston would try to stay on the down low for a little bit, but that apparently is not how PJ Hairston likes to roll.
At the time he was pulled over, he was driving a 2008 Acura LT, no word on if he owned the vehicle or if it was a rental somehow related to Haydn Thomas again. Thomas was the owner of the rental that Hairston was pulled over for his marijuana arrest. The court date for Hairston’s citation is August 30th.
As if his day could not get any worse, news also came out today that UNC was suspending Hairston indefinitely. The Tar Heels coach Roy Williams was the one to make the decision on the suspension. News is scarce on the situation as it is currently breaking but we will keep you up to date as the situation goes along.
