Clemson DB facing drug charges

You hate to see this.

Clemson defensive back Kaleb Chalmers is in a bit of trouble. He was charged with "simple drug possession, possession of drug paraphernalia and possession of a schedule II controlled substance" and was released on bond. Chalmers was arrested on Monday according to a report from the Anderson Independent Mail.

From that report:

According to the police report obtained by the Independent Mail, the arresting officer noticed two "suspicious" parked cars outside a closed bowling alley in Clinton at 10:14 p.m. Monday. The officer noted Chalmers was in the driver's seat and a female was in the passenger seat. Chalmers was "moving around inside the vehicle more than an normal amount," the report said, and the officer smelled marijuana when he approached the vehicle.

Chalmers was searched and told the officer that he had marijuana on his possession, which was found. He consented to having his vehicle searched, and police found pills of Vyvanse (the schedule II controlled substance), Alprazolam and Adderall. A digital scale was also found, and Chalmers admitted to possession of all illegal items.

The 5'11" DB redshirted in 2015 and was expected to see some serious action in 2016, but he also suffered a separated shoulder earlier in the month. Clemson has not made a comment on the situation as of Wednesday night.
