"Details of exactly what crimes Moore, 39, is accused of committing remain vague at this time. According to The Athletic, cops in Pittsfield Charter Township, Mich., were summoned to the home of a "female Michigan football staffer" yesterday afternoon. The Pittsfield police issued a statement last night to ESPN and others, saying the officers were "investigating an alleged assault" at that address. Moore, who was not named in the statement, was subsequently arrested by police in the nearby town of Saline."
"Defector's request to the Pittsfield Township Police Department for incident reports from Moore's arrest was denied. A Pittsfield police staffer told Defector earlier today that nothing beyond last night's statement will be issued. The officer declined to say if Moore is still in detention as of this morning, referring this reporter to Vinelink, a national online database of incarcerated individuals. A Vinelink search showed Moore remains in custody of the Washtenaw Corrections Division."
Sherrone Moore was arrested Wednesday hours after the University of Michigan terminated his employment for an inappropriate relationship with a staff member. Police in Pittsfield Charter Township were summoned to the home of a female Michigan football staffer regarding an alleged assault; Moore was later arrested in nearby Saline and handed over to Pittsfield law enforcement. Requests for incident reports were denied, and a Vinelink search shows Moore remains in custody of the Washtenaw Corrections Division. Athletic director Warde Manuel said an investigation produced credible evidence of an apparently romantic relationship, violating university policy. Moore posted an 18-8 record in two-plus seasons as head coach.
