Arizona Coyotes forward Richard Panik was arrested last week in Scottsdale, Ariz., and charged with criminal trespassing, as confirmed by Scottsdale Police Department records.
Panik was taken into police custody on the evening of April 8 after reportedly refusing to leave the entrance of a local bar, according to ABC15 Arizona. Police believed Panik was intoxicated during his interaction with authorities.
The 27-year-old Slovakia native was booked into Scottsdale City Jail for criminal trespass and was later released with a criminal citation.
Panik was traded to the Coyotes from the Chicago Blackhawks in the Anthony Duclair deal on Jan. 10. He suited up in 35 games for Arizona, registering eight goals and 11 assists.
