Arkansas Razorbacks football players, Anthony Brown and Myles Slusher, were arrested Sunday just hours after they lost their homecoming game against the Liberty Flames with a scoreline of 19-21.
“We are aware of the incident involving Anthony Brown and Myles Slusher. We are in the process of gathering information from the proper authorities. Once we have that information, we will determine their status with our team,” a spokesperson for the university told KNWA/FOX24.
The arrests were made after posting bonds of $265 against charges of disorderly conduct.
Razorbacks head coach Sam Pittman said that Slusher and Brown were suspended for at least one week and will not play in the matchup against No. 7 LSU on Nov. 12.
“Brown engaged in fighting behavior… congregated with two or more other people in a public place refusing to comply with a lawful order to disperse, and obstructed vehicular traffic in a public place,” an officer said, according to court documents.
According to police, while Brown was getting cuffed, Slusher grabbed the arresting officer in order to try to pull him off of Brown, according to the docs.
