Overview

  • On June 26, LAPD officers stopped Lenoir and Marcus Cunningham after observing their double-parked vehicles blocking traffic on South Wilton Place in Los Angeles where a firearm was seen in Cunningham’s car.
  • Police say Cunningham tossed his car keys to Lenoir and that Lenoir refused to hand them over, leading to his booking on a misdemeanor charge of resisting a peace officer.
  • Lenoir was released on his own recognizance at 1:18 a.m. on June 27, avoiding the need to post bail.
  • He is due to appear in Los Angeles County court on July 25 to answer the resisting-a-peace-officer charge.
  • Last season Lenoir secured a five-year, $92 million contract extension with the 49ers, cementing his status as a key defensive player for the upcoming NFL campaign.
