The DC police have little humor about a guy that brings three weapons to work and asks his co-worker to "choose one." Shesh. Tough crowd.
WASHINGTON -- Washington Wizards guard Gilbert Arenas has been charged with a felony in connection with last month's locker room confrontation with a teammate.

Arenas, who was suspended indefinitely without pay by NBA commissioner David Stern last week, was charged with carrying a pistol without a license outside a home or business.
The charges were filed in D.C. Superior Court in an "information," a document that generally signals a plea deal.
Wizards lawyers told team officials that Arenas being charged with only one count means the charge was prearranged with Arenas' attorneys, a source told ESPN.com.
The Washington Post reported if convicted, Arenas could face a maximum five years in jail and a fine.
