MARTINVILLE, La. -- Former Dallas Cowboys star Nate Newton was arrested when police confiscated 213 pounds of marijuana from a van on a highway. Newton and two others were charged Sunday with possession with intent to distribute marijuana, Trooper Willie Williams said Tuesday. A fourth person, arrested in a separate vehicle with $18,000, was charged with conspiracy to possess narcotics. All four were in the St. Martin Parish Jail on Tuesday with bail set at $200,000 each. Newton is a six-time Pro Bowl offensive lineman who helped Dallas win three Super Bowls. He spent 14 seasons in the NFL, 13 with Dallas. He retired last year after a season with Carolina. Williams said a state police patrol pulled over a van for a traffic violation on Sunday about 6 a.m. east of Lafayette. "The driver seemed nervous and gave consent to search the van," Williams said. He did not say who was driving. Cardboard boxes filled with 213 pounds of marijuana were in the van, Williams said. Newton, who lives in East Ellijay, Ga., was arrested along with Faye Cleveland, 46, and Marva Johnson Waye, 49, both of Jacksonville, Fla. All three were charged with possession with intent to distribute marijuana. The driver of a pickup truck, Ricky Glenn Williams, 46, of Quinlan, Texas, was charged with conspiracy to possess narcotics, police said. The $18,000 that was in the truck with him was seized, the trooper said.

Scary stuff: espn.go.com Tuesday, November 6 Report: Vincent's kidneys weren't working properly ESPN.com news services PHILADELPHIA -- Troy Vincent's case of dehydration after Sunday's game in Arizona was so severe it left some in the Eagles' organization shaken, according to a newspaper accounts. The 30-year-old cornerback is feeling OK after spending Sunday night in a Phoenix-area hospital and has rejoined the Eagles. On Monday, Eagles coach Andy Reid described Vincent's condition on Sunday an "urgent situation." According to The Philadelphia Inquirer, Vincent's condition in the locker room after the Eagles' 21-7 victory over the Cardinals was so bad that some feared another Korey Stringer situation might be unfolding. Stringer died last August when his body shut down after suffering heatstroke in practice. "He locked up," Reid told the Inquirer, "and it wasn't just one area on his body. It was everywhere. We were trying to get his liquids back in him, but it wasn't working." Eagles medical staffers administered intravenous fluids in the trainer's room, but Vincent was in extreme pain and his electrolyte count was disturbingly low, Reid said. The Philadelphia Daily News said Vincent was taken to the hospital by ambulance after the game. The report said he was dehydrated so badly that tests revealed his kidneys weren't working properly. "It was uncontrollable," Vincent told The Daily News. "There's just so much pain, all you want to do is cry. I wasn't scared because I knew what it was, but it was so painful." Reid said Vincent is day-to-day and should be ready to practice Wednesday. "I feel great," Vincent told The Daily News. "Everything is fine. I'm fine." The temperature in Tempe, Ariz., was announced as 94 degrees at kickoff. Vincent was one of four Eagles to be excused from training camp to attend a memorial service for Stringer.
