Karrington Blake Bush, 22, was charged with assault causing injury/family violence. He was released from custody this morning on a $3,000 surety bond.

According to Corporal Wayne Casteel of the San Marcos Police Department, officers were summoned to the apartment Bush shares with his girlfriend minutes after 6 p.m. Wednesday.

Reports indicated the couple had quarreled after the girlfriend found messages on his cell phone. The altercation turned physical, Casteel said, leading to a point where the girlfriend was allegedly trying to strike him and he pushed her down on a bed.Girl goes wild and guy goes to jail?

If Karrington would have had a cut on his arm or any injury caused by the woman, then they both probably would have been arrested.

Instead, he is punished because he successfully fended off his attacker.

Hopefully he can get a good lawyer and prove that this was just self defense.

As for football, well that's a long ways away. I hope Coach Wright sits down with him and goes over what happened instead of just kicking him off immediately.

I would not think this would lead to him being kicked off the team xeyebrowx Hopefully the coach will wait until everything is known before making a decision.

How is his rehab coming?

Never know what to make of what the media reports...

They did get some police statements in the article that make it sound like KB may be off the hook. Either way this lands, the fact it got some attention and he was arrested, does not look good in the world of PR...
