CHAMPAIGN, Ill. -- University of Illinois guard Kendrick Nunn was jailed Thursday on suspicion of domestic battery after turning himself in to police, the latest of several recent allegations of misconduct by members of the school's basketball program.
Champaign police spokeswoman Laeisha Meaderds said Nunn was accused of striking a woman during a domestic dispute Wednesday afternoon at a home near campus. She said the woman's injury was minor.
Nunn was due in court Friday. Meaderds was not sure if Nunn had an attorney. The Champaign County state's attorney's office did not respond to telephone calls seeking more information about Nunn's arrest.
