Antrione Archer, the Cincinnati Bearcats' director of player welfare and development, has been fired from his post.
According to WKRC, Archer, 28, was in a grocery store and exposed his genitals and touched a worker at the store.
According to court records, police said Archer was in the Fort Mitchell Kroger May 27 and asked a 73-year-old employee for help finding some vitamins. Police said while she was helping him, Archer quote, "pulled his penis from his pants," and also, "placed his exposed penis against her backside." Police said he did this several times at different locations throughout the store. The incident was caught on store surveillance cameras.
Two weeks later, after police had identified Archer as a suspect, he was interviewed and confessed.
Archer was booked and charged on June 14, according to Cincinnati.com. Per Cincinnati athletic director Mike Boh, the school learned of his charges on Friday and suspended him before dismissing him on Tuesday.
“UC Athletics is fully committed to upholding the highest level of professionalism and conduct for our staff, coaches and student-athletes,” Bohn said. “The university will cooperate with the authorities in this matter.”
Archer had been with the school since 2011. In his role with the team, Archer helped prep players for the future and his case is set to go to trial on October 15.
