BRCC student turns himself in, arrested for multiple thefts in UREC
LSUPD arrested a 21-year-old non-student for second degree battery in connection to an incident that occurred at the Parade Ground in September.
As the University hosted its first home game of the season against Jacksonville State University on Sept. 10, non-student Jacob Cassagne grabbed a victim exiting a portable toilet and struck the victim multiple times in the face, according to Scott.
Cassagne reportedly struck the victim until he lost consciousness, Scott said. LSUPD obtained an arrest warrant for Cassagne, who was arrested on Jan. 22.
Cassagne was booked into East Baton Rouge Parish Prison for the aforementioned charge.
Man incarcerated additionally charged with criminal conspiracy, bank fraud
LSUPD added additional charges through an arrest warrant for a non-student incarcerated at East Baton Rouge Parish Prison, Scott said.
Non-student Starlet Barbe, 49, was incarcerated Jan. 24 at EBRPP for an unrelated and unknown case, according to Scott.
While incarcerated, Barbe was additionally charged with criminal conspiracy, forgery, nine counts of bank fraud and nine counts of monetary instrument abuse, Scott said.
The charges were the result of a backpack theft that took place near the East Campus Apartments sometime during football season, according to Scott.
The backpack, which was reportedly left unattended while the owner tailgated, contained a checkbook, Scott said. Barbe then allegedly cashed various checks totaling $910.
Barbe was arrested and booked into EBRPP on the aforementioned charges.
