CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Charlotte quarterbac­k Kevin Olsen, the brother of Panthers’ star tight end Greg Olsen, was arrested on rape charges.

The Charlotte Observer reports the 22-year-old Olsen was booked into the Charlotte Mecklenbur­g Jail late Sunday on multiple charges, including seconddegr­ee forcible rape, cyberstalk­ing and assault on a female.

Charlotte coach Brad Lambert says he’s aware of Olsen’s arrest and the junior has been sus- pended from the team. In a statement, the university says it’s “reviewing the case consistent with its disciplina­ry procedures.”

The Observer reports Olsen, a native of Wayne Hills, N.J., redshirted at Miami in 2013, but left the following year after multiple suspension­s. He then transferre­d to Towson University in Maryland. According to the Baltimore Sun, Olsen was kicked off the team in 2015 for violating team rules.
