ORONO, Maine -- Police say a standout football player at Maine has been arrested and charged with domestic violence assault.
Police say Ramon Jefferson was arrested at his home by Old Town police Wednesday night. They say police responded to a Bangor residence after receiving a call, and a woman who was interviewed identified Jefferson as the suspect.
The Portland Press Herald reports Jefferson is scheduled to be arraigned March 4. School officials say they are gathering details about the incident but did not yet have an official statement Thursday.
