PORTLAND, Maine -- Maryland men's basketball player Nik Caner-Medley has been free on bail following his arrest last weekend on a disorderly conduct charge arising from a disturbance in Portland's Old Port district.

According to a police report, Caner-Medley, 20, was arrested Friday night after a confrontation involving a group of people.

"Caner-Medley was there, yelling," said Lt. Vern Malloch, reading from the report. "He took his shirt off and threatened to assault [the complainant]. [Caner-Medley's] friends were trying to restrain him. He was intoxicated and made a statement, 'I'm from Maryland, and nobody can beat me.'

"Several other people stopped and said [Caner-Medley] was out of control, but none of those people wanted to give statements."

Caner-Medley, a former Mr. Maine Basketball, will not face underage drinking charges because he cannot be placed in a bar and did not admit to drinking, police said.

Windham High School coach Kevin Millington, who coached Caner-Medley in Amateur Athletic Union basketball and was with him Friday night, said the Maryland forward was approached by some people.

"They got a little mouthy with him and he got mouthy back," Millington said. "The feeling I got was the cops had everything under control."

Caner-Medley was transported to the Cumberland County Jail, where he was released an hour later on $1,000 unsecured bail. His bail conditions state that he cannot possess alcohol or illegal drugs and is not allowed to return to the Old Port.

Calls to the homes and offices of Caner-Medley's parents were not returned. Police did not release the name of the complainant.

Maryland coach Gary Williams had no official comment on the arrest, according to Mark Fratto, an assistant media relations director at Maryland.

Caner-Medley's arrest came a little over three weeks before the Terrapins are scheduled to travel to Italy. Fratto said Caner-Medley's status for the trip has not been determined.

The 6-foot-8 Caner-Medley starred for Portland's Deering High School and was the state's top schoolboy player in 2002. He averaged 12.2 points and 4.7 rebounds in 32 games last season when Maryland won the Atlantic Coast Conference tournament
