Kansas linebacker Maciah Long was dismissed from the football team after he was arrested Sunday by Lawrence police on suspicion of threatening a woman with a handgun.
Long, 19, was charged Monday with aggravated assault with use of a deadly weapon, a felony, and two misdemeanors, criminal damage to property and marijuana possession. According to Douglas County District Court documents, Long is also alleged to have damaged or destroyed the woman’s television.
District Attorney Charles Branson intends to seek a domestic violence designation in the case, according to court records.
Long was held without bond and made his first court appearance at 3 p.
