New England Patriots safety and three-time Super Bowl champion Patrick Chung has been indicted in New Hampshire on a cocaine possession charge.
Documents released Thursday show that Chung was indicted on August 8 for the incident, which police say took place on June 25 in Meredith, New Hampshire. According to the Laconia Daily, the indictment states that Chung “did possess or have under his control a quantity of the controlled substance cocaine” in Meredith, but Meredith Police Chief Kevin Morrow told the paper that Chung “was not arrested and there is no (booking) photo to provide.”
The Patriots issued a statement on Twitter after news of Chung’s indictment broke saying, “We are aware of the reports regarding Patrick Chung. We will not be commenting while his judicial proceedings take place.”
Chung has played nine of his 10 NFL seasons for the Patriots; he played for the Philadelphia Eagles in 2013.
He is due in court for his arraignment on August 28.
