Only a couple of weeks after completing a two-game suspension, NC State running back Shadrach Thornton is back in legal trouble, and this time it may mean the end of his Wolfpack football career. Thornton was arrested on Sept. 29 for a failure to give info/aid under NC statute 20-166(B). In other words, Thornton was involved in an auto accident and may have fled the scene.
