Pro wrestler Kurt Angle's hearing postponed in
Pa.
MCKEES ROCKS, Pa. - A preliminary hearing has been postponed for
pro wrestler and Olympic gold medalist Kurt Angle on charges he
illegally possessed human growth hormone near Pittsburgh.
The 40-year-old star of Total Nonstop Action Wrestling was
charged Saturday. Police say they found HGH when they stopped his
vehicle in Robinson Township after Angle allegedly violated a
protection from abuse order obtained by his girlfriend.
Angle contends he has a prescription for the HGH. His attorney
says Angle didn't violate the order, but just happened to stop at a
coffee shop where the woman worked.
Tuesday's hearing on the drug charge was rescheduled for Sept.
15. Angle faces a separate hearing Oct. 6 on violating the abuse
order.
