LSU Football Players Jordan Jefferson and Joshua Johns Face Arrests For Battery

As of 10:00 am this morning, Baton Rouge Police have issued arrest warrants that charge LSU quarterback Jordan Jefferson and Joshua Johns, with second-degree battery. The arrests are for the bar fight at Shady's Bar that injured four people last week.

Baton Rouge police Sgt. Don Stone said in a statement Friday that investigators have contacted the players' attorney, Nathan Fisher, and LSU coach Les Miles, and asked for the players to turn themselves in.

Jefferson and Johns, a linebacker, face felony charges for their alleged roles in a fight outside Shady's bar in Baton Rouge on Aug. 19.

A police report says a 19-year-old woman named Victoria Long said she witnessed several LSU players beating one of the alleged victims and saw Jefferson kick that man in the face.
