Maryland assistant football coach Kevin Sumlin was arrested early Saturday in Florida on a charge of driving under the influence, according to the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office.

An online arrest report said the 59-year-old Sumlin was booked at 2:11 a.m. and released later in the morning.

“Maryland Athletics is aware of the incident this past weekend involving football coach Kevin Sumlin,” the athletic department said in a statement Monday night. “As this is an ongoing investigation, we will have no further comment.”

Sumlin is a co-offensive coordinator, tight ends coach and associate head coach for the Terrapins. He was previously a head coach at Arizona, Texas A&M and Houston.

Maryland had an open date on its schedule last weekend. Coach Michael Locksley is scheduled to hold his usual weekly news conference Tuesday. The Terps play at Northwestern this weekend.
