Missouri basketball player Zach Price was arrested early Thursday morning on suspicion of third-degree assault and domestic assault after it was alleged he punched a male victim in the face, then pushed a female victim to the ground after she tried to intervene. Proving that the old adage “two is better than one” isn’t always true, Price was arrested a second time Thursday afternoon, according to ABC17 News.
Suspended Mizzou basketball player Zach Price was arrested again by Columbia Police Thursday afternoon, as confirmed by the department’s public information officer. This is Price’s second arrest of the day. He was arrested early Thursday morning on suspicion of assault and domestic assault.
ABC 17 is still working to find out more details regarding Price’s second arrest. Police confirm Price was arrested at approximately 3:15 p.m. He was then taken to the station around 4:00 p.m.
According to Tony Mullen, sports anchor for KRGC-TV, Price was arrested the second time and charged with second-degree assault following an incident that took place Wednesday afternoon.

Mizzou head coach Frank Haith suspended Price following his initial arrest. Needless to say, it’s pretty obvious that Zach Price will never suit up for the Tigers again.
