Texas Athletes Arrested

A runner who won a silver medal for the University Texas at the NCAA championships last weekend and a member of the Longhorns basketball team have been arrested on charges of robbery by assault.

Sabrina Kelly, 21, an All-America track star from St. Petersburg, Fla., and Angela Brown, 22, of Fulton, Mo., are accused of beating a woman and stealing her purse outside an Austin nightclub in February, police said Tuesday.

Both were arrested Tuesday on charges of robbery by assault, a second-degree felony, after they turned themselves in. If convicted, they face up to 20 years in prison and a fine of $10,000.
