...and this time it's NOT Sean Taylor. Ricky Manning Jr. was charged with assault. How the hell are these players so stupid? Honestly. They have everything in the world going for them, and then you get guys like this that beat up on people in restaurants because they look like geeks. What a f***ing loser.

Bears CB Manning charged with assault

LOS ANGELES - Chicago Bears cornerback Ricky Manning Jr. and two former UCLA football players were charged with assault Thursday for allegedly taking part in an early morning fight at a restaurant last month.

 

Manning was charged with one count of assault by means likely to produce great bodily injury, Deputy District Attorney Karen Murcia said.

 

His arraignment was scheduled for Thursday afternoon. Manning has previously declined comment.

 

Manning, a former UCLA star, was arrested April 23, along with former Bruins Tyler Ebell and Maurice Drew, after they allegedly attacked a man at a restaurant near the UCLA campus in Westwood.

 

Police said the players then drove off in Manning's SUV but were pulled over by officers soon after when the vehicle was spotted by a helicopter crew.

 

All three were released on $30,000 bail each.

 

Ebell, 22, and Drew were expected to surrender and be arraigned at a later date, Murcia said.

 

Drew, 21, was taken by Jacksonville in the second round of the NFL draft. The running back attended mini-camp in Florida last month.

 

Manning, 25, signed with the Bears last month after the Carolina Panthers declined to match Chicago's offer sheet. He is on probation for an assault in April 2002. If convicted, he faces up to four years in state prison.
