BERKELEY, Calif.
A Cal football player is facing felony charges, accused of kicking a dog and seriously injuring a student at a fraternity party.
Damariay Drew was arrested Thursday afternoon. His attorney told KTVU on Friday that due to the high bail of $100,000, Drew will likely remain in jail until Monday when he is expected to appear in court.
Drew was recruited to UC Berkeley from Livermore High School in 2012. He joined the team as a safety on a full athletic scholarship.
Berkeley Police spokeswoman Officer Jamie Lucero told KTVU that the incident happened Sunday May 4th at a fraternity house on the 2700 block of Bancroft Way. A police document says that during a party at the Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity, Drew said he'd been bitten by the victim's 20 pound Jack Russell mix dog.
Jack Russell? Will somebody post a pic?
SAE was the jock house at my university. Well when I went there at least. They all look like much a disappointment these days. Every house seems like a bunch of wiggers now.
Amazing what can happen in only 3 or 4 4-year terms...
We used to have the preppy house, country club wanna be house, surfer house, dork house, football/baseball team house, stoner house, 6th year seniors house... and a few mish-mash houses... now every house seems to be comprised of the reject pool from a bunch of clowns who tried out as extras in a rap video...
Who knew Cal football players knew how to hit anything these days?
LOL. You must have gone to my uni!
How did I already know.
I'd say; the football player was provoked,
then dog's owner tried to protect the dog.
fbp shouldn't have punched, but injuries
to ankles, bad for fbp (end scholarship).
“Damariay” is how you already knew.
Cops don’t care why you hit someone. If you connect with a punch, and cause bodily harm, you will be arrested. No more boys will be boys. Many young men now have criminal records.
Looks just like Sugar Ray.....
Black privilege, he’ll be out and clean by mon afternoon
a bit of the Mike Tyson...look
The local news around here says the Football Player was attacked by the dog first. Sometimes the first guess is incorrect. Maybe it really was self defense. As much as I love dogs, if the owner allowed his dog to roam free and charge at me growling, I would not just stand there and let myself be chewed up like a Clark Bar. Of course one never runs from a dog, as they will chase and catch you. Certain breeds tend to attract careless owners. All will become clear in the next few days.
me too, would have bet money on it.
We will have to bring in the “Exterminator” to know for sure.
Have you ever seen a Jack Russel Terrier? They are those little tiny dogs that can jump about 6 feet off the ground, and are always bouncing around like a ping-pong ball.
It is just not possible for one of them to "attack" a football player in any serious way.
Damariay has screwed up, big time. The dog may have annoyed him, but there is no excuse to kick the dog, and breaking the owner's jaw is just plain ghetto.
