TCU suspended defensive end Devonte Fields on Tuesday pending the results of a police investigation into whether he punched a former girlfriend in the head and threatened her with a gun while shouting, ''I should blast you!'' Officers said 20-year-old Haley Brown's right check was swollen and she had a cut under her eye when they arrived at a Fort Worth home early Sunday. An emailed statement from TCU says the school doesn't tolerate harassment or misconduct by a student and that the allegations against Fields will be go through an internal discipline process while he is ''separated'' from the university.
