Minnesota starting quarterback Drake Lindsey was arrested Friday for allegedly using a fake ID and for possessing alcohol as a minor.
The arrest took place in Lindsey's native Arkansas, where Fayetteville police responded to a call from a bar in town about a possible fake identification.
Per a preliminary police report, the 20-year-old Lindsey admitted to owning the ID and said he drank alcohol before going to the bar.
He spent about seven hours in the Washington County Detention Center and posted a $470 bond, according to outlets that viewed detention records. He has district court hearings set for June 1 and June 29.
A Minnesota spokesperson told ESPN that the university is 'aware of the situation and will address it internally.'
Lindsey was the Golden Gophers' starting quarterback as a freshman last season and set a program record for wins by a freshman QB with eight. He threw for 2,382 yards and 18 touchdowns with six interceptions on 63.2% passing.
