Update:
UC star RB will play, but one suspended after party incident
One University of Cincinnati football player has been suspended for at least four games and three others have been disciplined by coach Tommy Tuberville after a weekend incident near campus. One UC player was arrested, a second was cited and two others were found with outstanding warrants when police responded to a party where gunshots were fired.
Cincinnati police responded to a report of shots fired in the 100 block of Lyon Street in University Heights after a party at 2:36 a.m. Sunday, a police report shows.
No one was hurt, and none of the students detained were accused of being involved with gunplay.
But freshman cornerback
Alex Thomas, 18, was arrested after police say he ran when officers arrived, despite their commands to stop.
Hosey Williams, 23, a senior who is the team's No. 1 starting running back, was cited for disorderly conduct while intoxicated.
Cincinnati police also determined two other football players, junior
Leviticus Payne, 20, and sophomore
Ey'Shawn McClain, 21, had outstanding warrants for minor drug crimes. Payne is a starter at defensive back. McClain is a backup linebacker. All are at UC on scholarships.
Tuberville announced Thursday that Thomas has been suspended, but that the other three players remain on the active roster. UC will play its Homecoming game against Miami University on Saturday at Paul Brown Stadium.

Yeah, just suspend the guy that can't outrun a police officer. He wasn't going to "see the field" anytime soon anyway.
