NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) Tennessee State University's director of football operations and on-campus recruiting has been charged with aggravated assault and vandalism in an encounter involving a football player, according to court documents.
Ariel Escobar, 22, was arrested Dec. 3 after a TSU football player called police to complain about a former "fling" waiting for him in her car at his apartment when he arrived home with his new girlfriend and refusing to leave, a police affidavit said. The football player left with the new girlfriend and pulled into a parking lot, where he said Escobar followed, blocking him in and hitting his vehicle twice with hers.
"The victims stated they were both in fear that she was going to hurt them with her vehicle," the affidavit said.
