CLEVELAND, June 19 (UPI) -- Cleveland Browns rookie receiver Mike Mason was free on $20,000 bond Tuesday after being arrested for disorderly conduct at a nightclub during the weekend.

The 22-year-old was arrested early Sunday after refusing repeated requests to leave a club from police officers, who eventually used a stun gun to arrest him, WEWS-TV, Cleveland, reported.

Mason was held in custody until his court appearance on Monday, as he has no Cleveland address and was considered a flight risk, the report said.

He pleaded innocent to the misdemeanor charges of aggravated disorderly conduct, resisting arrest and obstructing official business and posted bond.

The Browns signed Mason as an undrafted free agent from Tennessee State and he has no guarantee of making the team, the station said.
