Phoenix Mercury’s Brittney Griner reportedly arrested in Russia for drug smuggling

Phoenix Mercury star Brittney Griner was reportedly detained in Moscow for alleged drug smuggling last month.

Russian news sources reported that a criminal case was initiated on Griner after she flew into Moscow and was found with vape cartridges with cannabis oil inside.

“In February 2022, when a U.S. citizen, who arrived on a flight from New York, was passing through the ‘green’ corridor at Sheremetyevo Airport, a service dog from the canine department of Sheremetyevo Customs indicated the possible presence of narcotic drugs in the escorted baggage,” reports from Russia’s Federal Customs Service cited.

An independent Russian news site identified the U.S. citizen as 31-year-old Griner.
