One of the top Minnesota high school hockey players to come out of the state in recent years is in trouble with the law again.
T.J. Oshie, who led Warroad to state titles in 2003 and 2005 and is a first-round draft pick of the St. Louis Blues, has been suspended for the University of North Dakota's next game after being arrested early Sunday, the school announced Wednesday.
According to the Grand Forks Herald, Oshie was arrested for disorderly conduct at 2:28 a.m. Sunday in Grand Forks. A Grand Forks County jailer said Oshie listed the same address as his home, the newspaper said.
Along with him, University of New Hampshire senior forward Mike Radja was arrested for the same offense at the same address, the Herald reported.
Radja had five points Saturday night in UNH's win over North Dakota. UNH has suspended Radja for the next two games.
Oshie, a junior and the team's leading scorer, will sit out the Sioux' next game, Friday vs. St. Cloud State.
Oshie, 21, was on probation after his arrest in January 2007 for being a minor in a bar. He pleaded guilty to that charge and was sentenced to a year of unsupervised probation and about $225 in fines and fees.
He pleaded guilty, was sentenced to one year of unsupervised probation and ordered to pay about $225 in fines and fees.
This past weekend's incident could be a violation of that probation.
