Knoxville Police: More Charges Coming In Tennessee Brawl

The investigation into Tennessee players involved in a bar brawl Friday morning is expected to last “several days” and will lead to additional charges, according to Knoxville Police Department spokesman Darrell DeBusk.

“We still have some additional interviews that we need to do, and (additional) charges are pending the conclusion of that investigation,” DeBusk said.

No one has been charged with the assault of officer and bar patron Robert Capouellez, who was hit in the head while trying to break up the fight. He was knocked to the ground, kicked and left unconscious.

So, be happy, Tennessee fans. More charges should be coming. And Derek Dooley’s first trip to SEC Media Days — scheduled for next week — should be fun for him.

As always, keep an eye on Rocky Top Talk for all developments.
