Cal QB Steve Levy suspended after bar fight arrest
The Dirt:
California suspended senior quarterback Steve Levy indefinitely on Monday after his arrest on felony assault charges stemming from an alleged bar fight.
Levy, who came off the bench to lead the Golden Bears’ season-ending victories over Stanford and Brigham Young last season, spent most of Sunday in San Francisco County Jail after his arrest on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon other than a firearm.
According to police, the weapon was a pint glass from Kells Irish Restaurant and Pub in San Francisco’s North Beach neighborhood. After a bar employee broke up a dispute between Levy and another patron early Sunday morning, the quarterback picked up the glass and hit the employee in the face, San Francisco police Sgt. Neville Gittens said.
The Spin: Note to recruits - getting in a bar brawl and getting arrested aren’t ways to win the starting QB job on the team.
