A loaded AK-47 would seem to be something that might lead to a lot of trouble if true. According to Rose, his sources indicated that police are still investigating what Appling was doing with the gun.

[UPDATE: ABC in Detroit reports that it was the Pantheion Club, and you don’t want to look up their Instagram page.]

Appling is the third former Spartan player to be in the news this past year for an arrest. Branden Dawson was arrested in March on suspicion of spousal abuse; Mateen Cleaves faces sexual assault charges.
