Arkansas State RB Kendrick Daniels Arrested On Sexual Assualt Charges; 2 Other Red Wolves Players Arrested In Connection With Alleged Assault
Jonesboro, AR - After a late night, booze filled party, 3 Arkansas State players have been arrested after an alleged attack of a female student.
RB Kendrick Daniels, who is set to graduate in the Spring, has been arrested after he allegedly brought a drunk student back to his room, locked the door, and sexually assaulted her.
The female student said that Daniels, who rushed for 352 yards and scored 3 TDs this season, refused to let her leave until she performed oral sex on her.
She also told police that Daniels' teammates starting Fullback Kenneth Rains and junior WR Kelsey Collins were present in the room and filmed the attack.
University police attempted to retrieve the video, but before being questioned Collins deleted the video off his phone.
All three will be arraigned on Tuesday.
Rains, who started for the team, rushing for 3 yards and scoring one TD and Collins, who caught 2 passes for 20 yards will be meeting with school officials where they are likely to be kicked off the team.
"I am highly disappointed by the actions of these men." Head Coach Jason Cameron said.
"On my recommendation, we will be severing ties with both Kenneth Rains and Kelsey Collins. We can't do much to discipline Kendrick, as he was a Senior. However, I am going to be pushing for the maximum punishment that we can doll out as an institution."
