Cesar Carrillo arrested

Astros pitcher Cesar Carrillo was arrested early this morning at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino.

Says the St. Petersburg Times:
Casino police charged Carrillo with trespassing after a warning at 3 a.m. Details about what led to that warning were not available. Carrillo, 26, was booked into the Hillsborough County Jail and later released on $500 bail.

There's an updated version of the linked article that includes:
Casino police charged Carrillo with trespassing after a warning at 3 a.m. Seminole Tribe spokesman Gary Bitner said Carrillo left the Tampa casino when initially warned but came back 15 minutes later, so officers detained him. Bitner declined to disclose what prompted the incident.

The Astros claimed Carrillo off waivers in September.
