CFB: Nebraska’s Suh pays $60 fine for negligent driving


Associated Press

LINCOLN, Neb. — Nebraska’s star defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh has pleaded guilty to negligent driving and paid a $60 fine.

Lancaster County Court records showed Tuesday that the 22-year-old senior from Portland, Ore., also paid $48 in court costs on Monday.
Suh told Lincoln police he swerved to avoid hitting a dog or cat crossing a street when the 2003 Land Rover he was driving hit the first of three parked cars early on Nov. 1.
Police say Suh had alcohol in his system, but he tested well below the legal limit. His mother owns the SUV Suh was driving.
Nebraska coach Bo Pelini has said he disciplined Suh. Suh is a finalist for postseason honors, including the Outland Trophy and the Lombardi, Chuck Bednarik and Bronko Nagurski awards.
