SAN FRANCISCO, June 27 (UPI) -- University of California, Berkeley quarterback Steve Levy has been suspended after being arrested and charged following a weekend bar fight in San Francisco.

Levy, 22, reportedly got into an argument with a man early Sunday morning, and was asked to leave the bar by the bouncer. However, a glass was thrown, cutting the bouncer's forehead.

Levy left the premises but was detained by a group of people until his arrest, the Oakland (Calif.) Tribune reported Tuesday.

San Francisco police Sgt. Neville Gittens said Levy was booked Sunday morning at San Francisco County Jail on charges of assault with a deadly weapon other than a firearm and was free Monday on $40,000 bail.

UC Berkeley football coach Jeff Tedford said Levy has been suspended indefinitely while school athletic officials investigate the circumstances of his arrest.
