COLLEGE STATION Texas A&M receiver Demond Demas has been arrested on a charge of assault family violence that occurred on Saturday, according to a probable cause statement obtained by the Chronicle from the Brazos County Sheriff's Office.
According to the statement, the alleged victim who was Demas's girlfriend, "Reported that the defendant pushed her head into the wall. Then she bit him on the shoulder. (She) reported that the defendant then grabbed her and threw her from off of the bed onto the floor, which caused her top front teeth to go through her bottom lip.
"The injury caused bleeding, loose teeth, swelling and a hole to the bottom of the lip. (She) stated that she and the defendant had been in an intimate dating relationship for a year."
A&M athletics responded that Demas has been suspended from the university and is not with the football program as of early March. Demas is currently being held in the Brazos County Jail.
This isn't the first time Demas, a five-star recruit out of Tomball in the class of 2020, has been accused of hitting a girlfriend. Last year the mother of an alleged victim reached out to the Chronicle saying she could not get into contact with A&M's coaches concerning Demas striking her daughter, who was Demas's girlfriend at the time.
Following an investigation by A&M police the Brazos County district attorney's office ultimately declined to press charges, and no arrest was made a year ago. A law enforcement official said at the time it was a case of "she said/he said" and there was not enough evidence for an arrest.
In addition a year ago College Station police arrested Demas on a charge of possessing less than two ounces of marijuana. Also, Fisher deemed Demas "unavailable" during two of A&M's games late in the 2020 season for an undisclosed reason, and he returned for the Aggies' Orange Bowl victory over North Carolina.
This past season Demas played in 10 games as a redshirt freshman before an injury sidelined him for the last two contests. He had a lone touchdown catch for 70 yards in A&M's win over New Mexico in mid-September.
