"James jailed on domestic violence charges" | Duck Football with Rob Moseley | The Register-Guard
On an unrelated note, his parents had to name him LaMichael? Really, Michael wasn't good enough, they just had to add a La there?
University of Oregon running back LaMichael James was jailed Tuesday on domestic violence charges, the latest in a series of incidents to roil the Ducks football team.
Springfield police arrested James, 20, on charges of fourth-degree assault, menacing and strangulation, all under under the state’s Abuse Prevention Act. Bail has not been set and he remained in custody Wednesday morning.
Police were not releasing any additional information early Wednesday. The charges are common in domestic violence assaults.
The arrest comes just a day after placekicker Rob Beard, 19, was cited for fourth-degree assault in connection with a Jan. 24 street fight that left him severely injured and hospitalized. Beard was charged with assaulting a 19-year-old woman in the fight.
Two other men, both Lane Community College students, have been charged with second-degree assault in connection with Beard’s injuries.
James was a freshman sensation on last season’s Rose Bowl team. He was a standout who helped the team recover from the loss of LeGarrette Blount, who was suspended after punching a Boise State player in the Ducks’ opening game.
