Former UGA basketball player arrested

By
ATHENS - Former University of Georgia basketball player Tony Cole was arrested this week for trespassing. <br> <br> Cole was arrested Tuesday after refusing to leave the weight room in the Ramsey Student Center, according to a police report. <br> <br> He refused to follow an officer&#39;s order to leave and was placed in double-locked handcuffs, the report said. <br> <br> University police banned Cole from using the facility for 90 days. <br> <br> Cole and two other Georgia athletes faced charges earlier this year after a female student alleged she was raped in Cole&#39;s dormitory room in January. <br> <br> Football player Brandon Williams was acquitted of rape and assault charges in Clarke County Superior Court in August. Charges against Cole, a senior guard, and teammate Steve Thomas, a junior forward, were dismissed following the acquittal.
