This doesn’t sound good at all. Cal football player Damariay Drew, a safety on the team who started three games last year has been suspended from the team after allegedly assaulting a man who now needs reconstructive face surgery and kicking his dog:
Cal defensive back Damariay Drew has been suspended indefinitely from the team by the athletic department after a felony arrest this week for allegedly punching a man and kicking his dog.
Drew, a 20-year-old sophomore from Livermore, was arrested by Berkeley police detectives on Thursday on charges of battery with serious bodily injury and inflicting great bodily injury in the commission of a felony.
The alleged incident took place Tuesday at 2:50 p.m. in the 2700 block of Bancroft Way, where a victim reported his dog had been kicked and he had been punched several times, according to the Berkeley police report.
Drew posted $100,000 bail and is awaiting arraignment. The Cal athletic department says they are aware of the situation and cooperating with police in the investigation. Cal head coach Sonny Dykes had no comment.
