TMZ captured video of the illegal arrest of the Seattle Seahawks Defensive End. Watch below.

Bennett’s brother Green Bay Packers’ Tight End, Martellus Bennett, had this to say, “the call that night was a scary one. The emotion and the thought of almost losing you because of the way you look left me in one of the saddest places ever. I could hear the fear in your voice, the tears in your eyes as well your sprinting heart beat.”
