North Carolina cornerbacks M. J. Stewart and Mike Hughes face misdemeanor assault charges linked to an altercation near the Chapel Hill campus earlier this month. Stewart, a sophomore who has started every game for the Tar Heels this season, turned himself in and was released on an unsecured bond Thursday night, according to an arrest report. Hughes, a freshman reserve, was arrested before being released on bond, according to police arrest reports. The university announced the two were suspended from all team-related activities for a violation of team rules, sidelining them from Saturday’s game against Wake Forest.
