Charges Dropped Against 2 Terps Football Players In BB Gun Incidents

Charges have been dropped against two Maryland football players in an alleged on-campus BB gun shooting spree in November.

John Erzen, a spokesman for Prince George's County State's Attorney Angela Alsobrooks, said there was insufficient evidence to proceed with the case against Lorenzo Harrison III and Darryl Turner II.

Both were each charged with three counts of second-degree assault, three counts of reckless endangerment and one count of committing bodily harm against someone unlawfully on the grounds of a higher education institution. Both were indefinitely suspended.

University of Maryland Police began their investigation on Nov. 6, after three students said they were hit by what they believed were BB pellets. The players were charged later that month.
