History between Davis and driver?

Could there be a history between UA linebacker Wendel Davis and Onyebychi Chukwunonso Odunukwe, the driver of the car that bumped into Davis on Tuesday afternoon?

A statement issued by Arkansas coach Bobby Petrino seems to suggest that.

“I’m aware,” Petrino said Tuesday evening through the UA Sports Information Department, “of matters involving Wendel Davis and the other individual involved in the incident. At this point, I am attempting to gather all of the facts regarding the situation. Once those facts have been gathered, we will move forward in an appropriate way.”

    Following up with Joe’s report, Davis has been arrested and charged in connection with first degree criminal mischief. He was booked at 6:14 p.m. and released from the Washington County Detention Center at 6:38 p.m. He’s scheduled to appear in Washington County Circuit Court at 7:45 a.m. July 2.

    Now speculation begins on whether he’ll be disciplined by Petrino and if there is a deeper history between Odunukwe and Davis.

    Another note to chew on:

    Arkansas law states that first-degree criminal mischief can be classified as a “(1) Class C felony if the amount of actual damage is five hundred dollars ($500) or more; or (2) Class A misdemeanor if otherwise committed.”

    His court date is July 30, not July 2 as I previously mentioned.

    Brandon:

    As I said a few months ago, if all you have to report is negative news on the Razorbacks, you’ll go the way of Wally Hall I hope. Sad to see that you are four (4) of the five (5) blogs in this story. Is that because no one wants to comment on any blog that you author??? I watch from Colorado, and see that you are a has been. Be gone oh third rate journalist.
