KALAMAZOO, Mich. (AP) - A former Western Michigan University football player facing armed robbery and home invasion charges has testified the crime was his co-defendant’s idea.
Nineteen-year-old Ronald George of Pittsburgh testified Tuesday in Kalamazoo County District Court in a preliminary examination for 18-year-old Bryson White of Mason, Ohio. The two were due to play for the Broncos last fall, but were dismissed from the team following their arrests.
They’re accused of using a gun and knife to rob a woman at her Kalamazoo apartment last August.

The Kalamazoo Gazette reports (https://bit.ly/2kjLuCf ) both men waived preliminary examinations last fall and were bound over to stand trial, but White’s case was remanded to district court for a preliminary examination after a plea agreement wasn’t reached before a deadline.
White’s preliminary examination will continue Feb. 14.
