Report: NFL star Donte' Stallworth tested positive for marijuana after crash

MIAMI - Cleveland Browns wide receiver Donte' Stallworth not only had a high blood alcohol level after he fatally hit a pedestrian on the MacArthur Causeway in March, he also tested positive for marijuana use, law enforcement sources tell The Miami Herald.

Stallworth, 28, is serving one month in jail after pleading guilty to DUI manslaughter last month.

Miami-Dade prosecutors say his blood alcohol level was .126, well above the legal limit, when his Bentley hit and killed Mario Reyes, 59, on the morning of March 14.

Stallworth's test results, which have not been released, showed traces of marijuana, according to sources with knowledge of the results.

Stallworth's attorney, Christopher Lyons, could not be reached Tuesday.
