UNC Senior Cornerback Malik Simmons has been suspended indefinitely after being arrested on a charge of misdemeanor resisting arrest on Wednesday.
Chapel Hill Police told WCHL that officers responded to a call of a disturbance at 120 East Franklin Street around just before two o’clock Wednesday morning. The initial disturbance was due to an unknown suspect discharging a firearm during a large disturbance. Police confirmed that Simmons did not fire the handgun listed in the report.
Police say Simmons was arrested for fleeing the scene when police arrived.
He was arrested and released after posting a one thousand dollar secured bond. His court date is scheduled for next Tuesday.
Simmons also has a court date on August 3 on a misdemeanor charge for possession of marijuana.
