NEW YORK (AP) -- Former New York Giant Mark Ingram was arrested in Michigan, nearly a month after he disappeared on the day he was scheduled to begin serving a prison sentence for bank fraud and money laundering.

U.S. marshals tracked the retired wide receiver to a hotel room in Flint, Mich., after a manhunt that began when he failed to turn up at a federal prison in Kentucky on Dec. 5.

A spokesman for the Marshals Service in New York, Timothy Hogan, said Ingram was arrested Friday without incident. The hotel wasn't far from Ingram's home in Grand Blanc, Mich.

Ingram, who has been in and out of jail since his playing career ended in 1996, pleaded guilty in 2005 to cashing counterfeit checks and laundering money he believed to be proceeds from narcotics deals.

Hmmm. I am sensing a pattern here?? Plaxico, Ingram, who else is there???

1. Laurence Taylor has had a pile of legal problems...

but I don't know if he was ever arrested. I know that he had a major drug issue and that it was a major contention with the Giants for years after he retired because they thought he'd been supplying party drugs to teammates.

2. Didn't Mark Bavaro run into legal issues also??

:shrug:

3. I hate to say this Mim...(well no I don't)

All teams have these problems.
