Philadelphia 76ers guard Allen Iverson surrendered at sunrise on charges of bursting into his cousin’s apartment with a handgun and threatening two men while searching for his wife after an argument. Iverson and his uncle faced assault and terroristic threats, with gun charges also pending. Iverson pleaded innocent as he arrived at police headquarters, held apart from other prisoners. His uncle Gregory Iverson also surrendered and planned to plead innocent. Iverson’s mother defended him outside the home, saying he knows he must do what he must do, while noting he seeks laughter to cope with stress. The case carries a potential 50 year prison maximum, though experts expect minimal jail time.
