Patriots S Duron Harmon arrested in Costa Rica for marijuana possession, report says

Patriots safety Duron Harmon was arrested in Costa Rica for attempting to bring marijuana into the country, according to a report from La Nacion, the national newspaper of Costa Rica. 

Harmon was allegedly in possession of 58 grams of marijuana hidden inside a can of iced tea, three pipes with cannabis oil, a THC candy and four glass containers of compressed marijuana, according to a translation of La Nacion's report, which was accompanied by a photo from police that purportedly showed the can in a suitcase.

He was detained for a short time before being sent back to the United States.

"We are aware of the situation involving Duron Harmon Friday night in Costa Rica," the Patriots said in a statement. "He has since returned to the U.S. and we are seeking to gain more information. At this time, we have no further update."

This is Harmon’s first off-the-field issue since joining the Patriots as a third-round draft pick in 2013.

Harmon, 27, has played in 79 games with 15 career starts. He led the Patriots last season with a team-best four interceptions and compiled 23 tackles. The safety signed a four-year extension last season reportedly worth up to $20 million.
