Some more details have emerged surrounding the late January incident that involved four Robert Morris football players, leading to two of them being suspended for a year.
Brian Jones and Kimani Smith have been suspended for a year. Adrian Perez will not be punished by the university since he is a graduating senior. No punishment has been announced for Antwan Eddie. All have been dealing with summary offenses for disorderly conduct and/or criminal mischief as a result of the incident.
According to the Sentry, the RMU campus newspaper, "At approximately 2 a.m., five officers were called to lower Salem Hall
after a noise complaint. When they got to the apartment, students were
running everywhere and making threatening gestures at campus police."
Jones - who resisted arrest - and Smith were taken to the campus police station. That's where, according to the report, Perez arrived and demanded to see his teammates. He became aggressive until the point where he, too, was charged with disorderly conduct.
The details of the incident came out on Thursday during Perez and Jones' summary trials in Coraopolis. The campus newspaper report does not detail any portion of the incident involving Eddie. He is set for a preliminary hearing on March 11.
