Police Identify Suspect in Vandalism of FirstEnergy Stadium, per Report

A suspect has been named in the ongoing investigation regarding an act of vandalism that took place at FirstEnergy Stadium a few days prior to the Browns’ game against the Buccaneers last Sunday.

The Cleveland Police Department have identified the suspect as 21-year-old Anthony Robert Westley O’Neal, according to a Thursday report from the Associated Press. O’Neal has not been arrested and is currently not facing charges in connection with the incident, per AP, but authorities stated that he will be a “direct indictment” to the Cuyahoga County grand jury.

The Browns and Bucs entered their matchup facing less-than-stellar field conditions following an incident that took place last Tuesday.
