Former LSU standout Demetrius Byrd was arrested and charged this week with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon following an incident on a Miami Beach bus that involved a knife and verbal threat, according to an arrest report.
According to the arrest report, the dispute escalated when Byrd allegedly removed a silver multi-tool from his pocket, opened a blade, and asked the victim, "Who wants to die?" while walking toward him. The victim told authorities he tried unsuccessfully to de-escalate the situation by talking to Byrd.
Byrd was granted a $5,000 bond during his hearing, but is required to appear before a judge due to an outstanding warrant in a separate domestic violence case.
Byrd, 40, previously attended Miami Central Senior High School, where he led Miami-Dade County in receiving yards. He was an impact player on LSU's 2007 BCS national championship team, catching a game-winning 22-yard touchdown catch from Matt Flynn with one second left on the clock to beat Auburn . He finished his LSU career with 72 catches for 1,134 yards and 11 scores.
Shortly before the 2009 NFL Draft , Byrd suffered an injury in a serious car accident. He was still drafted by the San Diego Chargers in the seventh round, but spent his only pro season on the non-football injury list before his 2010 release.
