Cass Tech QB Jayru Campbell Arrested Hours After Being Released From Jail For Allegedly Hitting Girlfriend

UPDATE 9/13: Prep Football Star Jayru Campbell Charged With Assault...Again

DETROIT (WWJ/AP) -- Detroit Cass Tech star quarterback Jayru Campbell was arrested Friday after he allegedly assaulted his girlfriend just hours after he was released from jail for assaulting a school security guard in January.

Campbell was reportedly attending school just before the incident happened. According to a report by WDIV, Campbell tried to read the girl's text messages, allegedly pushing her to the ground to get her phone. He allegedly choked and hit the girl, apparently leaving her with a bruise below her eye.

The incident was reportedly caught on video, which has since been turned over to investigators.

Campbell was sentenced in May to 60 days in jail after pleading guilty to misdemeanor aggravated assault. His jail sentence was delayed so he could finish summer school classes.

Campbell admitted that he slammed a security officer at Cass Technical High School head-first on Jan. 22 after refusing to pull a hood off his head. The confrontation was recorded on video.

Judge Timothy Kenny ordered Campbell undergo drug testing, counseling, anger management classes, and complete 75 hours of community service, and pay more than $600 in court costs

Campbell led Cass Tech to state championships in 2011 and 2012. Cass Tech football coach Thomas Wilcher told the Free Press he's yet not sure if Campbell will miss any games in the fall because of his sentence.
