Two Western Michigan players arrested for allegedly holding up a student at gunpoint

Two Western Michigan football players are in custody after being accused of holding up a woman at gunpoint with a semi-automatic weapon on Saturday, according to WWMT.

Western Michigan coach P.J. Fleck released a statement announcing that both players, 20-year-old wide receiver Bryson White and 18-year-old linebacker Ron George, have been suspended indefinitely. The two men were arrested on overnight in a car on campus with weapons and stolen money.

A WMU spokesperson announced the students will not be allowed back on campus and will both presumably miss the game against Northwestern next week. Both players were incoming freshmen.
