College Football Player Arrested After Putting 'Controlled Substance' In Woman's Drink

Only a day after Ole Miss star and likely first-round pick in the 2016 NFL Draft Robert Nkemdiche made headlines for a possession of marijuana arrest - which followed a fall from the fourth floor of a Grand Hyatt hotel outside Atlanta - and about a week after Ohio State's Adolphus Washington was arrested on charges of solicitation and subsequently suspended for the Fiesta Bowl, another college football player made headlines for all the wrong reasons. Bowling Green State University defensive tackle Michael Minns II was arrested this week in connection with a November incident, according to NBC 24.

Minns, a 21-year-old defensive tackle for the Falcons, was reportedly taken into custody by Bowling Green police on charges of "corrupting another with drugs."

Minns is said to have put a "controlled substance into the beverage of his victim" at a bar in downtown Bowling Green. Surveillance video from the venue allegedly showed Minns putting the substance into the unnamed woman's drink.

A spokesperson for Bowling Green Athletics told NBC 24 that Minns has been suspended indefinitely from the team as the university launches its investigation.
