Former KU football player John Randle will be back in court late next month.
Randle is scheduled to appear in Lawrence Municipal Court on May 25 on charges of battery and urinating in public, according to court records.
Randle was arrested early Saturday morning on charges of battery after a fight outside the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St, involving a 27-year-old manager of the Granada and an 18-year-old KU student, Ezekiel Adair, according to a police report.
The manager flagged down police outside the Granada after the fight, said Sgt. Dan Ward, Lawrence Police Department spokesman.
The manager told police that about 2:10 a.m., a car had pulled up outside the Granada. A man and a woman got out of the vehicle and walked over to Fatso’s, 1016 Massachusetts St., to stand in line for pizza, according to the report.
Randle then stepped out of the vehicle, walked over to the Granada and began to urinate on the wall near the door, according to the report.

The manager approached Randle and told him to stop. Randle laughed at the manager and then moved to another spot near the Granada and continued urinating, Ward said.
When the manager approached the man again, he punched the manager in the face, which caused the manager fall to the ground, Ward said.
Adair came over and both he and Randle kicked the manager as he was lying on the ground, Ward said.
The manager denied medical treatment at the scene, Ward said.
Lawrence police arrested Randle and Adair in connection with the battery. Both were booked into Douglas County jail about 3 a.m. Saturday for battery and urinating in public.
Randle was released from jail around 3:45 a.m. after he posted the $150 bond, according to jail records.
Alcohol is listed on the report as a contributing factor.
The manager declined to comment about the situation.
Randle could not be reached for comment.
Randle is scheduled to stand trial on June 8 for a previous battery that occurred on March 12 outside It’s Brother’s Bar and Grill, 1105 Massachusetts St.
He has been previously arrested for unlawful use of a driver’s license, attempted theft and suspicion of domestic battery for incidents that occurred in November 2003 and March 2004.
Randle spent two days in jail in April 2004 for two separate incidents in March 2004.
This incident marks the fifth time Randle has been arrested since November 2003.
