South Carolina freshman football player Monteque Rhames II is being held at the Alvin S. Glenn Detention Center on charges of carrying weapons on school property and obstructing justice.
Rhames has been suspended by coach Shane Beamer, along with fellow freshmen Anthony Rose and Cameron Upshaw, it was announced Friday.
No reasons were given for the suspensions by the university, but online records showed Rhames, an 18-year-old defensive end from Sumter, South Carolina, was booked Thursday night in Columbia on the two charges.
