The Facts:
Following up on a previous item. ... A civil court jury in small-town Pennsylvania sided with Burress over a local car dealer who sought $19,000 in damages after a vehicle he let Burress use ended up being seized by New York City police in connection with a 2005 shooting incident. Burress will only have to pay $1,700 to the dealer, an amount that would seem minor to the millionaire star of last year’s Super Bowl.

The jury decided that Burress should pay the cost to repair the vehicle and the bill to tow it back to the dealership. Burress, 31, a star wide receiver who caught the game-winning pass in last year’s Super Bowl, has been embroiled in controversy for months. He was charged with two counts of illegal weapons possession after he accidentally shot himself in the right thigh at a Manhattan nightclub on Nov. 29.
