LEXINGTON - Kentucky football chief of staff Dan Berezowitz was arrested Sunday and charged with fourth-degree assault in Lexington, according to court records.
Details about the circumstances of the arrest were not immediately available, but a UK spokeswoman confirmed the school is aware of the arrest and "gathering more info." A $1,000 cash bond was posted for Berezowitz by UK director of player personnel Chase Heuke, according to court records.
Berezowitz has been a fixture on the Kentucky staff since being hired as the administrative recruiting coordinator by Mark Stoops shortly after he was hired as Kentucky's coach before the 2013 season. Berezowitz was promoted to "chief of staff," an administrative position not included among the full-time on-field assistant coaches, in 2018.
Berezowitz is the second Kentucky football staffer arrested this offseason. Wide receivers coach Jovon Bouknight was arrested on drunk driving charges in June and later placed on unpaid suspension.

While most of Berezowitz's work in the program has been away from the public eye, he was involved in an on-field altercation with Louisville coach Bobby Petrino before 2014 game.
