Bills defensive back Donte Whitner pleaded not guilty today to charges he forced his way past police during an altercation at a Cleveland nightclub. The former Ohio State player was charged back on April 13th with aggravated disorderly conduct and resisting arrest. Whitner was in Cleveland Municipal Court today.
A preliminary hearing will be set on the charges. Whitner left the courtroom without commenting. Police say they used a stun gun on the 23-year-old and handcuffed him when he tried to force his way past officers trying to control a crowd outside a nightclub on April 11th. They say it was unclear why he was trying to leave the club and head for the melee outside. Since then, Whitner has apologized.
