TCU DE Tipa Galeai Charged with Assault from January Incident
TCU defensive end Tipa Galeai was charged with misdemeanor assault causing bodily injury for an alleged incident that occurred on the TCU campus in January.
According to Ryan Osborne of the Star-Telegram, court records indicate that Galeai is accused of punching two male students inside a TCU dorm room.
He surrendered to police on Jan. 26 and was released on $5,000 bond later that day.
The alleged victims told police that an "extremely intoxicated" Galeai chased them into the dorm and assaulted them, which resulted in a warrant being issued for his arrest, per Osborne.
Galeai registered 24 tackles and 3.5 sacks last season as a sophomore for the Horned Frogs.
The Euless, Texas, native is no longer listed on the team's official roster, however.
TCU has yet to issue a statement regarding Galeai's legal situation or his standing with the team.
