Earlier this week, Chris Jones was kicked off the Louisville men’s basketball team for, at the very least, sending a threatening text message to a woman he had been involved with romantically.

Today, things are a whole lot worse.

According to a report, Jones has been charged with raping one woman and sodomizing another (ages 19 and 20), and there’s currently an arrest warrant out for him. That warrant reportedly states that one of the women ended up in a hospital on Sunday, and she can identify Jones as the reason.

Jones led the Cardinals in assists (3.6 apg) and was the team’s third-leading scorer (13.7 ppg).

We’ll bring you further updates as they become available.
