Titus Young was released from a California jail late Thursday night after posting 10 percent of his $50,000 bond. Young spent 27 days in jail after his arrest May 11 for burglary after he allegedly broke into a San Clemente, Calif., home. Read more after the jump.
The former Lions receiver has been charged with 11 counts of burglary, attempted burglary and assault on police officers, including three felonies, for that incident and another one May 4 when he’s accused of stealing candy, water and cigars from a Laguna Hills, Calif., gas station.
He faces up to 10 years in prison for those crimes, and another six months on two misdemeanor counts of trespassing in Riverside County, Calif., for trying to steal his car out of an impound lot.
Riverside County prosecutors are still weighing whether to charge Young with a DUI as well.
Young’s family had declined to bail him out of jail, saying he needed to get “anchored” and find help for his mental problems.
It’s unclear where Young is now. Calls to Young’s father, Richard, and his attorney were not immediately returned, and the company that posted his bond, King Bail Bond Agency, referred all questions to Young.
Young is next due in court June 24 for a pre-trial hearing.
