Georgia Bulldogs' Isaiah Crowell faces felony weapons counts - ESPN (http://espn.go.com/colleges/georgia/football/story/_/id/8111289/georgia-bulldogs-isaiah-crowell-faces-felony-weapons-counts)
ATHENS, Ga. -- Georgia (http://espn.go.com/college-football/team/_/id/61/georgia-bulldogs) running back Isaiah Crowell (http://espn.go.com/college-football/player/_/id/512836/isaiah-crowell), who was in and out of Bulldogs coach Mark Richt's doghouse as a freshman, was arrested on weapons charges by Athens-Clarke County Police early Friday morning.
Crowell, from Columbus, Ga., was arrested and charged with two felonies and a misdemeanor, according to the Athens-Clarke County Jail Booking report.Crowell was charged with a felony count of possessing a weapon in a school zone, a felony count of altered identification mark and misdemeanor count of possession/carrying a concealed weapon.He was arrested around 2:20 a.m. ET after being stopped at a vehicle checkpoint near the Georgia campus and booked at 3:37 a.m. His bond was set at $7,500.Under UGA Athletic Association policy, student-athletes charged with felonies are immediately suspended from the team.Richt wasn't immediately available for comment.An Athens-Clarke County Sheriff's Department official said Crowell, 19, was still jailed Friday morning. Police said the altered ID-mark charge stems from a tampered serial number.Athens-Clarke County Police spokeswoman Hilda Sorrow told ESPN.com on Friday morning that officers at the checkpoint say they smelled marijuana inside the car."[Crowell] consented to a search of the vehicle and officers didn't find the marijuana," Sorrow said. "There were other occupants inside the car and they consented to a search, but the marijuana wasn't found. During the search of the vehicle, officers found a gun under the driver's seat. After discovering that the ID number had been altered [on the gun], Mr. Crowell was arrested and charged. Marijuana was never found inside the car."Crowell, who was ranked the country's No. 1 running back and No. 4 prospect overall by ESPN Recruiting in 2011, had a rocky first season with the Bulldogs.He ran 185 times for 850 yards with five touchdowns as a freshman but was dogged by disciplinary problems throughout the summer.
Wonder how many arrests we can rack up before the season starts this year? :rolleyes:
