OMAHA, Neb. (KMTV) — Husker running back Maurice Washington has been cited by campus police for possession of drug paraphernalia.

A university spokesperson told us that police found a glass pipe in his dorm room along with what appeared to be a small amount of marijuana just after Midnight on Tuesday.

The University says the violation is considered an infraction and Washington will have to pay a fine.

They also tell us the Athletics Department is aware of the incident and is addressing it.

This is not Washington's first run-in with police. Back in February, he faced revenge porn charges.
