Irish wide receiver McKinley arrested

Notre Dame receiver Javon McKinley was arrested Sunday on charges of battery resulting in bodily harm on a public safety officer and resisting arrest, according to the Indianapolis Star. A university spokesperson confirmed that the incident was being handled by the criminal justice system and declined to comment on any internal discipline by the school.

TMZ obtained court records that say McKinley, a backup for the Irish, was taken into custody Sunday after he allegedly tried to fight with university police officers on campus while intoxicated. The officers had been dispatched to help a male who had passed out in the back of an Uber in the early morning.

While being helped back to his dorm room, McKinley “freaked out” and punched two officers, including one who is a woman, then tried to flee the scene, according to TMZ. Officers eventually located and arrested McKinley.

The 20-year- old, who is a four-star recruit out of California, has never caught a pass for the Irish.
