An 18-year-old high school football star has been sentenced to 215 days in jail after pulling a gun on a cop.
According to TMZ, Marquise Bryant – a running back who was supposed to attend the University of South Florida – got into a fist fight with a cop who confronted him in the parking lot.
The site reports:
As we previously reported, 18-year-old Bryant got into a fist fight with a police officer who had confronted him in a parking lot … and was eventually taken down by a police dog.
Now, we’ve learned Bryant struck a plea deal with prosecutors in which he agreed to plead no contest to carrying a concealed weapon and violently resisting an officer — and in exchange he was sentenced to 215 days in jail.
He was also ordered to complete 100 hours of community service and got 2 years probation.
USC has given no word on whether or not they will end their relationship with Bryant but needless to say, it doesn’t look too good for the young athlete.
