DENVER (KDVR) — A 71-year-old man has been released from jail after being arrested for using a permanent marker on a basketball court at Central Park Rec Center to identify the boundaries used for pickleball.
Arslan Guney turned himself into jail on Thursday morning. He is facing a felony charge of criminal mischief for causing $10,000 in damage to the pickleball court at the rec center.
Guney was released from jail Thursday on a personal recognizance bond, which means he didn’t have to pay a bond because he agreed to return to court when ordered.
Guney has been suspended from all Denver Rec Centers indefinitely.
If convicted, Guney faces 1-3 years in jail for criminal mischief.
