Former New York Giant Mark Ingram has been arrested in Michigan, nearly a month after he disappeared on the day he was scheduled to begin serving a prison sentence for bank fraud and money laundering.

U.S. marshals tracked the retired wide receiver and former Michigan State standout to a hotel room in Flint, Mich. after a manhunt that began when he failed to turn up at a federal prison in Kentucky on Dec. 5.

A spokesman for the Marshals Service says Ingram was arrested without incident Friday. The hotel wasn't far from Ingram's home in Grand Blanc, Mich.

Before his flight, the Super Bowl XXV standout had sought to delay the start of his eight-year prison term so he could watch his son's freshman season as a running back at the University of Alabama.

I notice a lot of former Michigan State Univ. athletes get into trouble with the law.

I guess that if he wanted to see his son play football, he shouldn't have broken the law. Sounds like he didn't put the wants and needs of his son first then! Don't feel sorry for him. I feel bad for his son, who should be getting attention for what he does on the field and in class, not for what his thoughtless and greedy father did!!!
