Oregon State football commit Brandon Smith is facing a serious legal charge after being taken into police custody.
Smith committed to the Beavers back on June 2, but he’s accused of participating in an attempted murder on the same day, according to ESPN. The former Santa Barbara City College running back has been hit with an attempted murder charge after a man was found seriously injured following a fight with four men.
Smith was taken into custody June 7, and now faces charges of suspicion of attempted murder, robbery and conspiracy.

The Giants beat the Dodgers 7–5 in 11 innings on Friday night, but one of baseball’s oldest rivalries didn’t end before a bizarre play from both sides.
With Los Angeles down two and a man on second in the bottom of the eleventh, Mookie Betts popped a ball up in the infield, before chaos ensued. Giants third baseman Casey Schmitt dropped the ball, then threw it into right field trying to get Betts at first.
While it seemed like the Dodgers were gonna catch a break, their baserunners got caught in between, as Betts and Michael Busch were caught in rundowns.
