Xavier University basketball player J.P. Macura faces charges after court documents say he "did knowingly pull his pants down" in an Oakley bar early Thursday morning.

The incident happened at R.P. McMurphy's Irish Pub on Wasson Road. Court documents say several people were at the bar and saw Macura's actions.

The 20-year-old sophomore is charged with disorderly conduct and obstructing official business. Both are misdemeanors.

The obstructing charge surrounds his alleged possession of a fake ID in someone else's name that put his age at 21.

Macura posted a $1,000 bond Thursday afternoon, records show, and was released from the Hamilton County jail. A pretrial hearing is set for May 3 in Hamilton County Municipal Court. His attorney, Merlyn Shiverdecker, declined to comment.

Xavier Associate Athletic Director for Communications Tom Eiser issued the following statement Thursday: "We have been made aware of this situation and we’re working to collect all the facts."

Macura earned the Big East’s Sixth Man Award this season for his hustle off the bench. The 6-foot-5 guard averaged 9.4 points, 2.6 rebounds and 1.1 steals and helped Xavier clinch a record-breaking regular season and NCAA tournament bid.

Macura scored in double figures 16 times throughout the season and came through with clutch shots in pivotal moments. His 3-pointer at No. 10 Providence paved the way for the Musketeers’ 75-68 win in January. He notched a career-high 20 points against Marquette at the Cintas Center in February and later that month scored 19 points and with three steals in a defeat of No. 1 Villanova on the same court.

Macura is expected to be a key player on next year’s Musketeers team.
