The university was made aware of Bradford’s arrest Wednesday and immediately dismissed him from the football program, according to USA Today.

The Tucson Police Department received a 911 call around 6:30 a.m. Wednesday of an alleged domestic violence incident. When the police arrived on the scene, the “alleged victim had obvious injuries, and she claimed Bradford assaulted her several times over the past few days,” USA Today reports.
