Eastern Michigan has suspended newly transferred star wing Emoni Bates, who is facing two felony gun charges, from practices and games until his legal proceedings are resolved, ESPN’s Jeff Borzello reported Monday.
Bates was arrested Sunday in a routine traffic stop after officers found a gun in the vehicle he was driving. A Washtenaw County Sheriff’s Office spokesperson told Sports Illustrated that the 18-year-old was pulled over by police after he failed to stop at the intersection of Nottingham and Clark roads.
The Eagles wing was arraigned at 1 p.
