Orien Greene arrested

Orien Greene (193 cm, Louisiana-Lafayette’05) was arrested Monday on suspicion of breaking into a home and sexually assaulting a sleeping woman.

Greene was a second-round NBA Draft pick in 2005 by Boston. He began his career with the Celtics but was traded to the Pacers in 2006, where he was used sparingly. He was with the Kings for three months in 2007 before bouncing around for teams in the D-League, New Zealand, Mexico, Netherlands, Canada, and Libya. Greene recently signed with Guaros de Lara in Venezuela.

Police say Orien Greene broke into a home in Pembroke Pines, Fla., and fondled a woman, 7 News in Miami reported. The 34-year-old Greene faces charges of battery and burglary and was being held on a $30,000 bond, according to online jail records. According to TMZ Sports, Greene was staying at his girlfriend’s house when he sneaked out and broke into two homes in the same neighborhood.

At the first home, he saw a 56-year-old woman sleeping, but left the house. He then broke into a second home, where he allegedly went into the bedroom of a 40-year-old woman.

He then reportedly began rubbing the woman’s buttocks and kissing her neck, causing the woman to wake up and begin screaming. Orien Greene then ran back to his girlfriend’s home, according to a police report cited by TMZ. He was arrested shortly after the incidents.
