Ole Miss defensive lineman Robert Nkemdiche has been charged with marijuana possession as a result of his one-story fall at a hotel, the Atlanta Police Department announced Monday.

A police report revealed that an officer discovered seven marijuana cigarettes in Nkemdiche's room at the Grand Hyatt Atlanta in Buckhead. The investigation into how Nkemdiche fell is still ongoing, according to the Atlanta PD.

After responding to a call that a male had fallen from a hotel room window at the Grand Hyatt Atlanta, police found the All-SEC draft prospect conscious and breathing and transported Nkemdiche to Grady Memorial Hospital.
