After being arrested Saturday for the second time in two months, Oklahoma State safety Victor Johnson will now face a charge of possession of a controlled substance in addition to the obstructing a police officer accusation.
Wednesday a police report was released by OSU stating Johnson was arrested early Saturday morning after police responded to a complaint about a suspicious odor at his apartment.
An affidavit filed by an OSU police officer alleges that Johnson initially refused to let police search his apartment, but a bag of marijuana was found after officers obtained a search warrant. Formal charges were filed late Tuesday against the 20-year-old Johnson in Payne County District Court.
Johnson is scheduled to appear in court on the charges on Aug. 23, when he is also due for his next hearing on a charge of driving under the influence of alcohol. Johnson has pleaded innocent to the DUI charge.
Oklahoma State's preseason media guide lists Johnson as the Cowboys' starting kickoff returner and backup free safety. He has played in 19 games at OSU and started twice last season.
