Police and school officials say a walk-on punter for No. 20 UCLA has been arrested for investigation of rape.

Los Angeles police said Friday that Adam Searl's arrest came after an investigation lasting nearly a year.

Police say that last October, a UCLA student reported that she had met the suspect at an off-campus party and he returned home with her. She told investigators she awoke to find him sexually assaulting her.

The 20-year-old Searl was arrested on campus Thursday and booked on suspicion of three counts of rape.
