UConn freshman guard Miles arrested for violating a restraining order
STORRS, Conn. -- Connecticut freshman basketball player Nate Miles has been arrested on charges he violated a restraining order.
According to UConn Police arrest records, Miles was served with a restraining order on Sept. 22, but violated it by placing a phone call to the protected party that day. That person is not named.
Miles was released Thursday after posting a $2,500 bond and is due in court Sept. 30.
Kyle Muncy, a spokesman for the basketball program, says the school is aware of the arrest and does not have any other comment.
Miles, a 6-foot-7 forward, was academically cleared by the NCAA in June and enrolled in UConn for the second summer session. Miles, who attended five high schools, committed to UConn in November 2006.
