University tennis player has been arrested and charged with rape
and furnishing beer to a minor.
The player, 20-year-old Christopher Richard Doerr, is from
London.
The woman who signed sworn statements against him is also 20.
The sheriff's department did not release her name.
Oktibbeha County Chief Deputy George Carrithers says Doerr was
arrested Monday and remained in jail Tuesday under a $50,500 bond.
Carrithers says deputies were called to the Oktibbeha County
Hospital on Sunday "to talk to a female about a sexual assault."
The woman told deputies she was assaulted at Doerr's Starkville
apartment late Saturday or early Sunday while a party was taking
place.
MSU Athletic Department officials say they can't comment on
Doerr's status while the investigation continues.
