According to the Kenner Police Dept., the 23-year-old wide receiver was thrown behind bars after 9 PM. … and released at 11:30 PM.

A spokesperson for the Kenner Police Dept. said in a statement … Olave was booked on a charge of reckless operation of a motor vehicle after officers say he was going 70 MPH in a 35 MPH zone in a mixed business/residential area where citizens had complained of people speeding.

In his Dodge Charger, Olave was allegedly “recklessly maneuvering between lanes and around other drivers on the roadway” in addition to traveling at a high rate of speed, according to cops.

Chris’ brother, Josh Olave, appeared to comment on the incident in a tweet late Monday night … writing, “Bro was on the way back to the crib from CVS… aint nun serious.”
