Former University of Kentucky player Darnell Dodson was dismissed from the team at Southern Mississippi on Thursday following an arrest for allegedly stealing items from a fraternity house.
Here is an excerpt from HattiesburgAmerican.com:
[QUOTE]USM coach Larry Eustachy announced in a brief statement Thursday night that Dodson was dismissed from the team with no mention of the reason.
Hopkins said that members of a fraternity located on Ross Blvd. called police early Thursday morning to report the crime.
“Members returned to the residence and saw two black males in the residence before they fled out the back door,” Hopkins said. “They gave us basic descriptions.
“We stopped and talked to one individual, who was later identified as Dodson. There was a preliminary investigation done at that time. He was released to be back in our office the next morning. He came back and the investigators interviewed him and through that interview and the available evidence, we were able to make an arrest.”
Hopkins said that items were taken from inside the fraternity house and from a vehicle on the property.
