LSU Student Charged After Damaging Tiger Stadium Turf

Clayton Fleetwood, a 19-year-old LSU student, was arrested Thursday and charged with simple burglary, criminal trespassing and unauthorized use of a movable, per local police. Fleetwood allegedly broke into the football stadium on two different nights—Jan. 21 and Feb. 8.—and drove a parked Kawasaki MULE ATV on the field.

According to LSU officials, the joyrides caused $8,000 of damages, per The Advocate.

"On both occasions, [Fleetwood] can be seen on video surveillance within the fully fenced/enclosed area under the bleachers of Tiger Stadium," police said in the arrest report.
