Chris Johnson was arrested in Florida on Friday night on firearm charges. After the New York Jets running back was pulled over for rolling through a stop sign, the officer saw the firearm on the floor on the vehicle. He was immediately arrested on second degree misdemeanor charges.
The details of the case are being debated as Johnson is telling a different side of the story, saying his car was searched and the officer found the gun instead of it being in plain sight. Following the breaking news, many people took to Twitter to crack jokes about the arrest. Although firearm laws are very serious and do not present an opportunity for jokes, some found it to be a perfect time for a little amusement:
