MANKATO, Minn. – A former Minnesota State University baseball player is facing seven charges after a bar fight and struggle with police in downtown Mankato.
Police say 19-year-old Braden Grimm refused to show ID when approached by an officer Friday night.
When the officer tried to detain him, investigators say Grimm tensed up, pushed past her, and continued to resist after a second officer stepped in. During the struggle, police say Grimm tried to get up and run and the officer holding onto his legs was pulled down, causing her head to hit the pavement.
Grimm pitched for the Mavericks baseball team last season. He also previously played for the Mankato MoonDogs, a team in the Northern Baseball League.
