Alabama student accused of bomb threat at LSU 8:18 AM ET ESPN
A University of Alabama freshman is accused of threatening LSU's Tiger Stadium during the LSU-Florida game Saturday night.
Connor Bruce Croll, 19, of Crozet, Virginia, was arrested by officers and jailed Sunday as a "fugitive from justice." He faces unspecified charges in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.
According to a police affidavit obtained by WBRZ in Baton Rouge, Croll told police that he called in a bomb threat during the Tigers' 42-28 win because a friend was "on the verge of losing a large bet."
Authorities didn't immediately provide further detail about the nature of the threat or say whether Croll intended to carry it out.
"Protocol was followed efficiently and effectively to quickly ascertain the source of the threat. That protocol including an immediate sweep of the stadium and a multi-agency investigation, which led to the suspect being identified within minutes and arrested soon thereafter," an LSU spokesperson said in a statement Tuesday.
Alabama spokesman Chris Bryant said pranks and threats can have serious ramifications and require an appropriate response. He said the school is cooperating with authorities but can't provide details on the arrest of or allegations against the freshman.

treated fairly within the Louisiana court system. They don't take too kindly to Bama fans down there, and in this case it's justified.

Hopefully, the punishment does fit the crime considering the potential for catastrophe involved.

the punishment he would have received if his FRIEND had just lost the bet. Now the friend loses the bet AND this knucklehead gets punished.

Didn’t the guy that poisoned the oaks at Toomer’s Corner only get essentially a ‘slap on the wrists’?

He rarely makes his scheduled $200 monthly restitution payments to Auburn until he is called back into court and forced to do so or go back to jail.
He is 72 years old now so he'll likely die before paying even one percent of the $800,000 he owes.
I recently read an article that said last year for Halloween, he reportedly dressed-up as a dead tree.

You bunch of pansy behinds. I bet you that Dabo will do something like He did with the punter he grilled after making a stupid try on forth down. Be patient. Also, if the kickers feelings get a little hurt from that, he is in the wrong game
