PISCATAWAY, N.J. (AP) The mother and girlfriend of Rutgers University football star Leonte Carroo face charges stemming from a fight that led to his suspension from the team.
Police have charged 41-year-old Lavern Carroo of Edison, 20-year-old Maria Vega of Fort Lee and Vega's 52-year-old father, Juan, with simple assault and disorderly conduct.
It's unclear if they have lawyers who can comment on the charges.
Leonte Carroo has pleaded not guilty to a domestic violence-related assault charge. Authorities say he slammed a woman he once dated onto concrete after a football game on Sept.
