Jim Lampley is arrested in domestic violence case
Posted Jan 4, 2007
Note: This isn't directly related to Tar Heel sports, but Jim Lampley is a UNC alum and well-know sports personality, so I figured it'd be of interest.
TV sportscaster and current HBO boxing announcer Jim Lampley was arrested Wednesday afternoon by San Diego County sheriff's deputies on suspicion of domestic violence and other counts. A brief news release from the Sheriff's Department indicated that Lampley, 57, also was being held on suspicion of violating a restraining order and dissuading a witness. He posted bail of $35,500 and was released from the Vista Detention Facility in north San Diego County.
