Delton Williams Suspended by MSU After Arrest for Road-Rage Incident

Michigan State running back Delton Williams has been suspended indefinitely from the football team after being taken into custody following a road-rage incident.  

According to Matt Charboneau of The Detroit News, Spartans head coach Mark Dantonio announced the suspension for Williams on Tuesday, and a team spokesperson said a statement would be released later in the afternoon:

Joe Rexrode of the Detroit Free Press reported Williams has been charged with a misdemeanor for brandishing a weapon in public.

According to David Harns of isportsweb, citing the Michigan State University Police Department, "a person displaying a gun from vehicle at Shaw/Farm in a road rage incident" was taken into custody. Harns cited a "reliable source" as saying that Williams was the person in custody.

This is the second time in three years that Williams has been in trouble with the law. In 2012, as a high school senior, he faced a misdemeanor drug-possession charge that was later dropped, per Brian Calloway of Michigan.com. 

Williams has played sparingly in two seasons at Michigan State, carrying the ball 92 times for 554 yards and six touchdowns, but he figured to take on a more prominent role in 2015 with Jeremy Langford and Nick Hill graduating.
