Former Alabama running back Alvin Kamara was arrested Thursday in Norcross, Ga., according to a report from the Gwinnett Post.

Kamara was arrested and

charged with driving on a suspended license, no driver’s license, safety belts required and failure to appear, according to the report. He spent eight hours in jail before he was released on $1,824.

Kamara, who was driving a rental car, had a learner's permit, but it was under "

an active suspension for failure to appear" and had been suspended for three months, according to the report.

A four-star prospect out of Norcross, Kamara did not play in his only season at Alabama. He was suspended twice and did not participate in any of the Crimson Tide's practices leading into the Sugar Bowl. He announced his decision to leave the program in January.

Kamara, who has been courted by a number of non-SEC schools, recently visited Clemson.
