Curne was reportedly charged with fleeing, reckless driving, speeding, improper lane change, and possession of a schedule six substance of less than four ounces.
He also got a misdemeanor charge for possession of drug paraphernalia.
According to Crittendon County Sheriff's Office, Curne was arrested at 5: 11 p.m., but was later released about an hour and 39 minutes later at 6: 50 p.m..
Curne was the No. 1-ranked recruit in Arkansas in the 2024 class, and the No. 49 overall player in the nation in the 2025 class, per the Rivals Industry Rankings.
Despite his elite rankings, the four-star prospect entered the transfer portal in 2025 ponly after a year with the Tigers, because an injury cut short his season. Curne appeared in only seven games for LSU as true freshman, and started only five of those.
Once he entered the NCAA transfer portal, he was rated as the No. 20 overall player in the portal. He’s also the No. 1 interior offensive lineman, per the On3 transfer portal rankings, despite playing tackle during his freshman season.
Curne was considered a major recruiting win for Golding. After Lane Kiffin's exit, Golding lured in Curne to be an integral part of his interior offensive line. The 6'5", 330-pounder out of Hughes, Arkansas, was a highly talked-about piece in Golding's new offense.
