CLEMSON — The city of Clemson Police Department issued a statement Sunday evening on the arrest of Clemson tight end Ian Schieffelin.

Schieffelin was arrested over the weekend on suspicion of driving under the influence. The press release gives some details on what happened and where the arrest was made.

“Following a traffic violation on Tiger Boulevard, the Clemson Police Department made the arrest of Clemson University football player Ian Schieffelin for DUI at 1:47 AM last night. He was released on bond at 9:10 AM this morning. The investigation is still ongoing,” the statement said.

This story is still developing and more details are to come.

Earlier in the day, Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney addressed the situation with the former basketball star turned football player.

“We are aware of Ian Schieffelin’s arrest on suspicion of DUI. Clemson Athletics has a clear policy by which we will abide, so Ian will miss some competition to start this season as a consequence. We’re obviously very disappointed by the situation, but we are very thankful no others were involved and no one was hurt.”

Clemson Football officially added Schieffelin to the program as a tight end in early May.

Schieffelin spent the first four years of his five-year collegiate clock as a central figure for some of the most successful basketball teams in Clemson history. The forward helped the Tigers to NCAA Tournament appearances in each of his final two seasons, starting all 70 of Clemson’s games in that span. He concluded his career as one of 47 1,000-point scorers in program history and finished ranked seventh in program annals in career rebounds.

As a senior last season, Schieffelin earned second-team All-ACC honors in contributing to the Tigers’ program-record 27 wins. The year before, he was named as the ACC’s Most Improved Player as a junior, posting a double-double in his first career NCAA Tournament appearance as Clemson went on to earn its first Elite Eight berth since 1980.
