I might have a new topic about Basketball players, but this caught my eye out of the blue.
HS BASKETBALL PLAYER ARRESTED!
Charge: Sexual Assault
Darren Manriquez, a junior at McAllen High School, was arrested by the Hidalgo County Sheriff's Office yesterday, March 8, 2022. He was released the same day on a $10,000 bail.
This is a developing story; however, it seems he was accused by a fellow student. McHi ended its basketball season last week with a loss at the Region IV-5A semifinal. Manriquez is expected to be a key player for McHi next season and it seems he is/was already being watched by several college recruiters.
We'll be following this case to get the full story.
: It looks like the Monitor picked up the story already and the Sheriff agreed to talk to them. The version previously told by friends of Manriquez is different from the allegations being made. The female student said he sexually assaulted her after telling him to stop several times.
