An 18-year-old University student was arrested Sept. 2 for felony damage after punching a window in Broussard Hall, said Capt. Cory Lalonde, LSU Police Department spokesman.
LSUPD officers responded to a call at 3:23 a.m. in reference to the broken window at Broussard and learned that a male subject had punched a window in the building, Lalonde said.
Further investigations led officers to Travis Parent of 11289 Winrock Drive in New Orleans, Lalonde said. Upon questioning, officers noticed cuts on Parent’s hand.
Lalonde said Parent later admitted to punching the window out of anger.
Damage to the window exceeded $500, Lalonde said, so the property-damage charge was classified as a felony.
Parent was booked at East Baton Rouge Parish Prison.
