Indiana RB dismissed from team while facing charges of child molestation

Indiana dismissed Kiante Enis from the program on Thursday following his arrest. The freshman running back faces two counts of child molestation.

Investigators from the Randolph County Sheriff's Office received a tip on Wednesday of a possible relationship between the 19-year old Enis and "a child 13 years or younger." The police reported that Enis admitted he had a "consensual sexual encounter that occurred on at least two occasions" during an interview with deputies.

Enis was booked into county jail on Thursday afternoon and is being held on $20,000 bond.

Enis is the nephew of former Penn State and NFL running back Curtis Enis.
