The arrest location is listed as the intersection of the Veterans Expressway and Hutchison Road. He was released on $500 bond at 10:50 a.m. Sunday.His arrest comes less than a month after assistant head coach Chris Hovan, another former Bucs player and teammate of team president Derrick Brooks, was arrested on May 15.

He is in his fourth season with the Storm in his current role, having joined the team's front office with Brooks in 2011.Brooks issued a statement through the team Sunday following Gooch's arrest: "We are aware of the situation that occurred earlier this morning and are still gathering information. We have no further comment at this time."
