DALLAS (AP) - Seattle backup quarterback Trevone Boykin has been arrested in Dallas after police say he was in a vehicle that hit seven people on a sidewalk near a bar.

Jail records show Boykin, a former TCU quarterback, was booked early Monday on misdemeanor charges of public intoxication and possession of marijuana. Bond was $500.

Dallas police say a vehicle backed onto a sidewalk and struck seven pedestrians, plus the bar, slightly injuring a bartender. All suffered non-life threatening injuries. The woman driving was arrested for felony intoxication assault with a vehicle.

Boykin in 2015 was suspended before TCU's Alamo Bowl game after being arrest following a bar fight. Boykin last June pleaded no contest to resisting arrest. He received a year's probation.

Boykin's agent and the Seahawks didn't immediately comment Monday.
