IOWA CITY – University of Iowa backup quarterback AJ Derby is being accused of punching out a window in Iowa City Saturday night, deputies said.

Deputies were dispatched to 4916 Walleye Dr. SE where reports were made of an uninvited, intoxicated male who had punched out a bus window as he was exiting it.

Alexander John Derby, 20, of 2650 First Ave. in Coralville, admitted to punching the window, deputies said, and said he would pay for it.

Deputies said he intentionally damaged the property, and it will cost between $200 and $500 to replace.

According to reports, Derby registered .120 in a preliminary breath test.

Derby, who authorities said posted bond early this morning, is being charged with consumption and intoxication, and fourth degree criminal mischief, a serious misdemeanor.
