FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (AP) - Arkansas linebacker Wendel Davis faces a felony criminal mischief charge after police say he punched through the window of a car that bumped his scooter.

Davis, 19, of Sweeny, Texas is scheduled to appear before a judge July 30 over the charge, stemming from an altercation Tuesday afternoon. If convicted, Davis could face up to 10 years in prison and a $10,000 fine.

A university police spokesman says Davis' fist put dents into the car and broke its windshield. Davis was released without bond pending his court hearing.

Arkansas coach Bobby Petrino said in a statement that he was aware of the incident and would act once he had "all of the facts regarding the situation."
