Georgia’s new wide receiver Rodarius “Rara” Thomas has been charged with felony false imprisonment and misdemeanor battery family violence 1st offense, according to police records.
Thomas transferred this month to Georgia from Mississippi State where he was a solid player.
Georgia released a statement on his arrest:
“We are aware of a reported incident involving conduct by one of our student-athletes,” it said. “While we are limited in what we can say about the incident, the report is disappointing and not reflective of the high standards we have for our student-athletes on and off the field. In addition to following internal Athletic Association policies, we will be working closely with our administration to ensure we cooperate fully with all law enforcement and campus protocols.”
The transfer receiver was arrested, booked, and released on a 1,850 dollar bond.
