University of Georgia police have taken out warrants charging a former UGA student in connection with a complaint by a Clemson University student that he was beaten at a fraternity house.

The Athens Banner-Herald reported that police on Friday charged 23-year-old Gene Whitner Milner III with felony false imprisonment and misdemeanor battery.

The charges stem from claims by an 18-year-old visiting Clemson student, Stephen Spaseff, that he was held captive at the Chi Phi fraternity house early on Nov. 15. Spaseff was in town for the Georgia-Auburn football game on Nov. 14.

Milner, who is not a Chi Phi member, was last enrolled at UGA during the spring semester.

Calls to a number listed for Milner in Athens by The Associated Press on Saturday rang unanswered.
