Miami Radio: Miko Grimes OUT At Sports WQAM

Miko Grimes
Miko Grimes will no longer serve as a radio host on WQAM 560 AM, the station's program director said Wednesday.

Grimes, wife of Dolphins cornerback Brent Grimes, was arrested Sunday outside Sun Life Stadium before the Dolphins’ game against the Buffalo Bills on charges of disorderly conduct and resisting arrest.

The Sun-Sentinel reports Grimes, 40, of Davie, did not make her usual appearance on Monday’s "Big O Show" on CBS Radio-owned WQAM with host Orlando Alzugaray.

“I can confirm she is no longer an employee at our station,” WQAM program director Ryan Maguire said Wednesday night. “Other than that, I have no further comment on the matter.”

Before Sunday's game, Miko Grimes attempted to walk through an area near the southeast gate at the stadium that was restricted, where police had formed for crowd control, according to an arrest report.
Officers said they gave her several loud verbal warnings to stop, but she kept going. After an officer grabbed her by her right arm, she broke away and continued, yelling obscenities at them, the report said.

When officers attempted to subdue her, putting her in a bear-hug, she resisted. Officers tried repeatedly to subdue her but Grimes, now on the ground, flailed her arms and kicked, according to the report.

After officers handcuffed her and lifted her to her feet, she suddenly jerked her head backward, head-butting an officer, the report said.

Social media pictures and video of the arrest show Grimes being pinned to the pavement by officers.

Contacted by cellphone on Monday morning, Miko Grimes was asked by a reporter how she was doing.

“None of your f------ business,” she said.  “Don’t call my phone again.”
