The son of former
NFL superstar Ray Lewis was reportedly “charged with third degree criminal sexual conduct on Friday,” per
WPDE.com.
The report cited warrants and said the 20-year-old Ray Anthony Lewis III “engaged in sexual battery” with an 18-year-old woman “while she was mentally incapacitated and/or physically helpless from the use of drugs and/or alcohol.”
The incident allegedly took place at an apartment on Jan. 23.
The police report cited in the WPDE.com story said a rape kit was performed. The case was brought to the 15th Circuit Solicitor’s Office to review, and police eventually sought out an arrest warrant for Lewis III.
He turned himself in on Friday.
The review used reports from the hospital, lab results, statements from witnesses and victim statements.
Lewis III was a 3-star cornerback prospect, per
247Sports’ composite rankings, who followed in his father’s footsteps and chose the University of Miami to play collegiate football. However, he never saw the field for the Hurricanes and was suspended for the Russell Athletic Bowl in 2013, per
Chip Patterson of CBS Sports.
In January 2015, Lewis III announced his intentions to transfer to Coastal Carolina on his
Instagram page, via Patterson.
Lewis III’s father played 17 seasons with the Baltimore Ravens and won two Super Bowl titles.
