49ers Owner Jed York Arrested in Ohio

York spent one day in jail.

San Francisco 49ers owner Jed York was arrested in Ohio over the weekend for attempting to pay a prostitute $140, according to police. York, a 46-year-old married executive originally from Youngstown, Ohio, was taken into custody at a trailer park in East Palestine and charged with disorderly conduct and possessing criminal tools.

He pleaded no contest to the misdemeanor charges and was released after posting a $5,000 bond, receiving one day of credit for time served and a fine of $1,150. York's arrest came after he answered an ad on a known prostitution website in Columbiana County and arranged to engage in sexual activity with a woman for $140. The NFL has acknowledged the matter and stated it will be reviewed under the personal conduct policy.
