Sexual Assault Complaint against Treon Harris withdrawn

University of Florida freshman quarterback Treon Harris’ accuser has withdrawn her sexual battery complaint on Friday, according to Harris’ attorney Huntley Johnson.

“The young lady who claimed Treon Harris sexually battered her has withdrawn her complaint,” Johnson told Gator Country. “I am pleased for Treon Harris and his family.”

The 19-yeard old freshman from Miami, Florida was immediately suspended from all team activities and placed on interim suspension by the University of Florida on Monday following the initial allegations.

The police report that was released — and heavily reacted — showed that the alleged crime had taken place in the early hours of Sunday morning but not reported to UFPD until 12:49 a.m. on Monday.

With the withdrawn complaint, there will be no legal action against Harris and he will now have to wait for a ruling from the university to make a decision about Harris’ current interim suspended status.

Stay tuned as Gator Country will have more regarding this news story throughout the day and weekend.

A South Florida native, Nick developed a passion for all things sports at a very young age. His love for baseball was solidified when he saw Al Leiter’s no-hitter for the Marlins live in May of 1996. He was able to play baseball in college but quickly realized there isn’t much of a market for short, slow outfielders that hit around the Mendoza line. Wanting to continue with sports in some capacity he studied journalism at the University of Central Florida. Nick got his first start in the business as an intern for a website covering all things related to the NFL draft before spending two seasons covering the Florida football team at Bleacher Report. That job led him to GatorCountry. When he isn’t covering Gator sports, Nick enjoys hitting way too many shots on the golf course, attempting to keep up with his favorite t.v. shows and watching the Heat, Dolphins and Marlins.

  1. I feel for this young man, he had the world by the tail and blew it with a bad decision. I know the sexual urge is the most difficult thing in the world to contain and he probably did not do what he was accused of doing. This should be a very powerful example to other young men in this type of situation. When you are in the public eye as he is you must be able to contain that urge!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
