Jed York, the 46-year-old owner of the San Francisco 49ers, pleaded no contest to two criminal charges after being arrested at a trailer park in Ohio over the weekend, local media reported.
According to KRON4 News in San Francisco, York was initially detained on suspicion of engaging in prostitution; that allegation was later amended to a charge of disorderly conduct. He also faced a separate charge of possessing criminal tools. York entered no contest pleas to two counts and was fined and sentenced to two days in jail.
The incident and the subsequent plea were reported by local news outlets; court records filed in the matter reflect the amended charge and the possession count that led to the penalties. Details about the circumstances of the arrest beyond the initial reports have not been publicly disclosed.
York is a prominent figure in professional sports ownership. In addition to his role with the 49ers, where he serves as chief executive, he also holds an ownership stake in English club Leeds United. The reporting did not include any comment from York or from representatives of the teams.
