Maryland running back Wes Brown has been cleared of all charges stemming from an incident with Baltimore police on the outskirts of campus early this month, according to the Prince George’s County attorney general’s Twitter account. The news was confirmed by the Associated Press.
Brown was arrested the night of July 4 and charged with second-degree assault, theft and wiretapping. The incident occurred as he was being questioned by a Baltimore police detective as a person of interest in a non-fatal shooting that occurred last month in Baltimore.
During the questioning, Brown was said to have swung at the Baltimore detective — missing him — then shoved him with two hands and fled on foot. The rising sophomore was eventually tracked down, about a quarter of a mile away, and ordered to the ground. Brown complied.
