MANHATTAN- Law enforcement authorities in Riley County are investigating an accident involving the arrest of a Kansas State University football player.

Officers with the Riley County Police Department responded to a single vehicle collision near the intersection of Poyntz Avenue and Evergreen Avenue in Manhattan just before 3a.m. on Sunday in Manhattan

Authorities, according to a media release, found that a 2014 Ford F150 driven by Cre Moore, 20, a defensive back on the KSU football team from Broken Arrow, OK., had left the roadway and collided with a light pole and a privately owned stone stairwell.

The vehicle sustained major damage to the front driver’s side as well as the front driver’s side wheel.

The wheel became detached as a result of the collision.

Moore was not injured in the collision.

After an investigation into the accident he was arrested for driving while under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Throughout the course of the investigation Moore was found to also be in possession of several pills, which were identified as depressants.

Moore was given a total bond of $3,500.00 for both offenses (DUI and possession of a depressant) and is no longer being held in the Riley County jail.

During the Big 12 coaches teleconference Monday, Kansas State coach Bill Snyder acknowledged the arrest and said he would handle the matter, but didn’t elaborate.
