Ex-Michigan coach Sherrone Moore arrested after alleged assault, firing
Former Michigan football coach Sherrone Moore faces arrest on felony home invasion and misdemeanor stalking charges, days after firing over a staffer relationship.
Former Michigan football coach Sherrone Moore was arrested after officers responded to an alleged assault on December 10, hours after he was fired by the university for an alleged inappropriate relationship with a staff member. Authorities say Moore was detained in connection with the incident, which occurred on the same day the university announced his dismissal with cause.
In a related set of charges, Moore faces a felony home invasion count and a misdemeanor stalking charge. A 911 caller alleged that a man had been stalking her for months, a claim prosecutors say aligns with the investigative timeline surrounding Moore. The development follows a rapid sequence of events that began with his removal from the program and ended with police involvement on the same day.
The university’s leadership has publicly described the alleged relationship as a painful breach of trust, underscoring the seriousness with which the institution is treating the matter. Prosecutors have indicated that the charges are part of an ongoing investigation into Moore’s conduct, and further legal proceedings are anticipated as the case unfolds.
