Chamique Holdsclaw in custody

Atlanta police said Thursday the incident happened Tuesday after the Olympic gold medalist followed 29-year-old Jennifer Lacy to her car. Lacy plays for the Tulsa Shock.

No one was injured. Lacy identified the 35-year-old Holdsclaw, one of the biggest stars in women's college basketball history during her career at Tennessee, as an ex-girlfriend. They were teammates with the Atlanta Dream in 2009.

Holdsclaw was in custody Thursday night in Fulton County Jail. Her bond was set at $10,000 on one charge each of aggravated assault, second-degree criminal damage and reckless conduct.

A number for Holdsclaw listed in the police report went to voicemail, and it was unknown whether she had an attorney.

She has been recovering from severe depression and seemed much better. Something ushed her waaaay over the edge. Glad she didn't hurt anybody or herself. I had a cousin who did something similar.
It's really tragic that P.Summit can't help her. She was one person Holdsclaw loved and trusted. I hope she has somebody who will step up and help her. She has no close family that can.
