Delaware State University, a historically Black institution, said its women's lacrosse team was racially profiled by sheriff's deputies during a traffic stop while traveling through Georgia last month.
The team's bus was headed north on I-95 in Liberty County on April 20 following a game in Florida when it was stopped "under the pretext of a minor traffic violation," Delaware State University President Tony Allen said in a statement. Liberty County is on Georgia's coast, south of Savannah.
During the stop, sheriff's deputies used drug-sniffing dogs to search students' suitcases, Allen said.
