Former Tailback sues school

Former Penn State tailback Austin Scott has filed a civil suit against prosecutors, police and the university two years after authorities dropped charges of rape and other counts against him.

The multimillion-dollar lawsuit was filed this week in federal court in Williamsport. Scott's lawyer, John Karoly, says his client's NFL hopes were dashed because of the case.

Scott never played for the Nittany Lions again after coach Joe Paterno suspended him in October 2007 for violating team rules. Police charged Scott a week later.

The nine-count lawsuit alleges malicious prosecution by Centre County prosecutors. The assistant DA on the Scott case has since resigned and is under investigation by the state Attorney General's office for alleged misconduct.
