Georgia football wide receiver Colbie Young was arrested early Tuesday morning on misdemeanor charges of assault on an unborn child and battery.
The Miami transfer was arrested by Athens Clarke-County police and booked into the Clarke County Jail at 4:18 a.m. and remained jailed as of 8:30 a.m. Bonds were set for $2,500.
“This is a pending legal matter, we will have no further comment at this time,” Georgia athletics said in a statement to the Athens Banner-Herald.
Young is tied for fourth on the Bulldogs with 11 catches for 149 yards and tied for second in touchdown catches with two.
Georgia coach Kirby Smart dismissed another wide receiver, Rara Thomas, on Aug. 1. following his second domestic violence arrest.
