St. Louis alderman arrested for driving with a suspended license

121

Florissant police arrested a St. Louis city alderman last weekend on an outstanding warrant for driving while his license is suspended, just weeks after a St. Louis city police officer let him go following a traffic stop.

Florissant police arrested John Collins-Muhammad, 26, at about 7:20 p.m. on Saturday on Lindbergh Boulevard near Cougar Street for a traffic violation. He was then taken to the Jennings jail to face a warrant for his arrest there stemming from a February 2016 case in which he was ticketed for driving with a revoked license and failed to appear in court.

A summons had been issued for his arrest in June.

He was held overnight in the Jennings jail until his release at about 4 a.m. Sunday, police told us.
