Report: Little arrested on multiple charges



CINCINNATI -- Center Donald Little was dismissed from Cincinnati's basketball team because he was arrested for traffic violations, including drunken driving, according to a published report.

Coach Bob Huggins kicked the sophomore off the team Saturday for "conduct detrimental to the basketball program." Neither Huggins nor university officials will comment any further about the infraction.

The Cincinnati Enquirer reported that police stopped Little's car on Interstate 75 in northern Kentucky at 2:18 a.m. Saturday. He was arrested on charges of speeding, drunken driving, driving with a suspended license and possession of marijuana.

The Boone County sheriff's department couldn't confirm the arrest on Sunday.

The newspaper also reported that Little was arrested Sept. 20, 2000 in Cincinnati for driving without a license plate and driving with a suspended license.

Little was the Bearcats' starting center last season, but his inability to score and his propensity to foul quickly diminished his playing time. B.J. Grove, who was out of shape when the season began, started 18 of the last 21 games.

Grove was reinstated to the team last July after he was acquitted of beating up the mother of his two children. The charge was dismissed when the woman refused to testify, and the university accepted Grove back to the team.
