Re: AJ Derby Arrested??
THis is the story:
Backup Iowa quarterback AJ Derby was arrested on Saturday on charges of 4th Degree Criminal Mischief and Public Intoxication.
Police were called to Wildwood Smokehouse and Saloon on Walleye Drive east of Iowa City a little before 11:30pm Saturday. Witnesses said a male had punched out a window on a bus as he exited it.
The male was id...entified as Derby, who admitted to punching the window and said he would pay for it.
Police say Derby, who lives in the 2600 block of First Avenue in Coralville, had watery red eyes, slurred speech and smelled of ingested alcohol. A preliminary breath test registered a blood alcohol concentration of .120.
The 20-year-old Derby was booked into the Johnson County Jail about 11:30pm and was released about an hour later. He faces up to 13 months in jail if convicted.
Derby has played in two games this season, going 3-6 for 30 yards.
It has been a very quiet year off the field for the Hawkeyes. Derby is the first football team member charged with any sort of crime in 2011.
