Indiana redshirt junior defensive lineman Ralph Green III has been suspended from the team following his Sunday morning arrest on preliminary misdemeanor battery charges after slapping a 20-year-old woman in the face.

Green, a 21-year-old native of San Antonio, Texas, was charged with battery, a Class A misdemeanor offense, public intoxication and disorderly conduct.

According to Bloomington Police Department Capt. Joe Qualters, Green was trying to dance with the victim at a residence in the 1300 block of North Lincoln street. She refused to dance and attempted to get away, Qualters said, causing a disturbance between the woman, her boyfriend and Green. Qualters said Green grabbed her by her waist during the disturbance and slapped her on the right side of her face.

Bloomington Police Department responded to the residence at 1:09 a.m. Sunday, when officers were approached by a male who said a man wearing a New York Knicks jersey had attacked a female. Officers located Green, who matched that description and was yelling belligerently. Qualters said Green attempted to enter a vehicle through the passenger side and began honking the horn and yelling.

Officers told him to stop honking and quiet down because of the large disturbance he was creating. When Green stepped out of the vehicle, officers noticed he had red and watery eyes, and was swaying back and forth while speaking. Qualters said a field test revealed Green had a blood alcohol content of .201, more than twice the legal limit.

Qualters said the victim had no marks, redness or swelling when police arrived, but indicated that she wished to pursue charges.

Green was taken into custody at 1:42 a.m. Sunday. He was released from Monroe County Jail this morning at 2:37.

Indiana released a statement Monday saying it was aware of the charges.

“Indiana University Athletics and the IU football program are aware of the arrest of Indiana University student-athlete Ralph Green III. We take this situation very seriously as we do all conduct-related issues, on or off the field, among our student-athletes.

Ralph has been suspended from all football activities effective immediately, and the IU Office of the Dean of Students has been notified of the allegations consistent with Department of Athletics policy. We will continue to gather facts, monitor the legal and university processes, and take further action as the evolving situation warrants.”

Green, at 6-foot-5, 315 pounds, is expected to be a second team defensive lineman for Indiana, rotating in and out of the Hoosiers’ 3-4 front. He made three tackles in Saturday’s Cream and Crimson spring game.

Last season, Green appeared in 11 games and recorded 19 tackles, including one sack. Green was a BTN.com honorable mention selection to the All-Big Ten Freshman team, while CollegeFootballNews.com tabbed him as a Freshman All-America honorable mention after he made nine starts, played in all 12 games and posted 25 tackles.

BLOOMINGTON — Indiana University defensive tackle Ralph Green III must complete 50 hours of community service and a year of probation stemming from his arrest in mid-April, according to online court records.

Green was arrested April 19 and charged with disorderly conduct, public intoxication and misdemeanor battery, after slapping a woman in the face at a party.

He was suspended from team activities at that time, and Indiana released a statement that read in part: "We take this situation very seriously as we do all conduct-related issues, on or off the field, among our student-athletes."

It's unclear whether Green will face further punishment once the season begins.

A Bloomington Police Department statement released shortly after the incident indicated Green "began to 'dance up' on the female and that a disturbance broke out between the victim, her boyfriend and Green."

"Regarding the alleged battery," the statement read, "the victim reports that she was grabbed around the waist by Green, she attempted to get away, and that he slapped her across the right cheek."

According to online court records, in addition to the community service and probation, Green will be required to pay nearly $500 for court costs and fees associated with a $300 alcohol/drug program. He was also handed a suspended 180-day jail term, with two days reduced from that total for time served.
