Police arrest 38 people during homecoming game, tailgating

Indiana excise police arrested 38 people while patrolling this year’s homecoming football game.

Most subjects were given summons instead of being hauled off to jail for illegal possession or consumption of alcoholic beverages, according to a press release. Other charges included false informing, or lying to a police officer about age, public intoxication and resisting arrest.

Jacob Wagner, 19, Muncie, was arrested after he ran from officers at tailgate. He was charged with illegal possession, public intoxication and resisting law enforcement, according to the release. Wagner’s blood alcohol level was .208 when he was booked at the Delaware County Jail.

One 17-year-old was taken to Indiana University Ball Memorial Hospital because he had a blood alcohol level of .224. The teen is accused of fleeing from officers after they saw him holding a beer on the 900 block of North New York Street. He was stopped after he ran into a tree behind the Beacon Hill Apartments.

The teen was eventually released to a legal guardian.
