Baltimore Ravens cornerback Jimmy Smith was arrested and charged with misdemeanor disorderly conduct after an incident at a bar on Saturday night, reports the Baltimore Sun.

According to Baltimore County police, Smith was trying to help an intoxicated woman in the bathroom of a Towson, Maryland, bar when she became nauseated. Medics arrived, and officers asked Smith multiple times to move away from the scene. Smith refused and began to argue with officers.

Smith is the fifth Ravens player to be arrested this offseason, after running back Ray Rice, offensive lineman Jah Reid, wide receiver Deonte Thompson and rookie running back Lorenzo Taliaferro.
