A total of six Notre Dame football players were arrested in two separate incidents over Friday night and early Saturday morning.

South Bend police spokesman Lt. Joe Galea said that after officers broke up a fight inside the Linebacker Lounge they saw two women fighting outside when Butler allegedly shoved one of the women.

The group was initially stopped due to speeding, but police reports say Reason smelled marijuana and, after confirming with his narcotics detecting police dog, officers searched the vehicle and found marijuana and a loaded handgun. With the help of a drug-sniffing dog, the trooper found the marijuana and handgun. Of those six players, Redfield has the most impact.

Butler, who was held at the county jail, was scheduled to be arraigned on Monday.

Additionally, early Saturday morning police arrested cornerback Devin Butler on a preliminary charge of battery on a police officer.

All five were arrested and taken to the Fulton County Jail, where they were charged with possession of marijuana. Redfield, sophomore Dexter Williams and freshman Kevin Stepherson also were cited for possession of a handgun without a license.

Butler, 21, of Washington, D.C., was expected to compete for a starting job in the secondary, but he suffered a re-injury of his foot this summer, which put his playing status in jeopardy. Ashton White, freshman wide receiver?
