The Seattle Seahawks are suspending fullback Derrick Coleman indefinitely following his arrest last night for alleged hit and run.

Coleman was arrested and booked into King County Jail Wednesday night after the vehicle he was driving allegedly struck a car around 6 p.m. local time. He then allegedly walked away from the accident, apparently unharmed, while the driver of the other car sustained a broken collarbone, per Jennifer Sullivan of the Seattle Times.

Until any further information comes into the light regarding this arrest, the team has suspended Coleman indefinitely, per Brady Henderson of ESPN.

There is no indication Coleman was inebriated, per Sullivan’s source, after he underwent a field sobriety test following the accident. He was arrested without incident.

Coleman has made two starts this year, and he’s played in 22 games since joining the franchise in 2013.
