North Carolina's The Daily Reflector reports that Jonathan Edward Williams, a sophomore running back for East Carolina University, has been charged with drunk driving (DUI), according to a report from the Greenville, N.C. Police Department.

Shortly before 11 p.m. on April 5, Williams was arrested on charges of DUI and driving after consumption of alcohol by a person under 21.

Williams refused to take a Breathalyzer test, so a warrant was obtained by the officer and blood was drawn at a lab in Pitt County Memorial Hospital. The result have not been reported.

Williams was confined to the Pitt County Detention Center on a $25,000 unsecured bond and is to appear in court on May 9. He will have an addition court date on April 21 on charges of driving with a revoked license.

Williams is the second Pirate football player to be arrested for DUI within the past year. On March 31, quarterback Rob Kass pleaded guilty to charges stemming from an August incident.
