Former Baylor TE Tre'Von Armstead Arrested for Battery; Kicked Police Car Window

Former Baylor football player Tre'Von Armstead was reportedly arrested in Las Vegas Monday.

TMZ Sports first reported the arrest, noting Armstead kicked out the back window of a police car.

Patrick Redford of Deadspin wrote Armstead was "charged with first-degree domestic battery, resisting arrest and damaging a police vehicle." Redford cited a Las Vegas police spokesperson who said police saw Armstead push a woman, which prompted the arrest he resisted.

He then allegedly kicked the window when he was placed in the police car.

TMZ Sports pointed out Armstead was named in a rape investigation in 2013, although the school didn't dismiss him from the football team until 2015 for a "violation of team rules."

Redford added more details:

"

Waco police investigated the allegations in 2013, but the school didn't begin an investigation of their own until 2015. Armstead was later kicked off the team for an ambiguous "violation of team rules," and the sexual assault investigation only became public last year after ESPN's Outside The Lines reported on Armstead's dismissal.

"

Armstead was part of a larger sexual assault scandal that led to former head coach Art Briles' dismissal. In May, Baylor passed along findings of fact from law firm Pepper Hamilton's investigation, which showed the school failed to follow Title IX legislation by not properly investigating sexual assault allegations against football players.

The consistent stream of negative headlines involving Baylor's football program extended beyond Armstead on Sunday, as KWTX 10 in Waco, Texas, reported associate director for football operations DeMarkco Butler was fired for sending inappropriate text messages to a teenager.
