Channel 2, WBRZ-TV:  LSU offensive lineman Adrian Magee was arrested shortly after the university announced his suspension from the football team Wednesday

Magee is accused of committing simple burglary at an apartment on W. Chimes Street.

According to Baton Rouge Police, the victim returned to his apartment just before midnight on April 1. The victim says he returned to find the door to his apartment was forced open and he was missing electronic items and cash.

The victim says he was looking through the apartment when Magee stuck his head through the open door and asked the victim if he had been burglarized. The victim says he's an LSU fan and immediately recognized Magee due to him wearing clothes with his football jersey number on it.

After the victim told Magee that he was going to check his security cameras to see who burglarized his apartment, Magee walked out and soon returned with several of the victim's belongings, according to the arrest warrant.

According to the victim, an Xbox gaming console, six Xbox games, Gucci flip flops, an Onyx bluetooth speaker, and $1,200 cash were stolen from the apartment. The victim's girlfriend's purse was also dumped out and rifled through.

Aren't all burglaries felonies?

Not if you're either a LSU Tiger, Alabama Crimson Tide, Auburn Tiger, TAM Aggie, OM Retard or MSU Bulldog.

Very simple explanation: He wanted to ensure he'd be recognized for this truly note-worthy feat. Heck, if you can't take pride in yourself who can?

Baton Rouge police issued the arrest warrant for Magee Tuesday on a count of simple burglary of an inhabited dwelling, a felony. The burglary occurred at a West Chimes Street apartment April 1, according to a police report.

Police noted in the arrest report that numerous LSU athletic players live in this apartment complex, but it is unclear where Magee lives while in Baton Rouge. The address on his arrest report only lists his Franklinton address.

Magee is accused of breaking open the door to the apartment and stealing an X-Box, six X-box games, $1,200 in cash, Gucci flip flops and a Bluetooth speaker.

After the burglary, the victim was looking through his apartment to determine what was missing. A man, later identified as Magee, "poked his head" into the open door of the apartment and asked the resident if he had been burglarized, according to the report.

The victim told police he is an LSU football fan and immediately recognized Magee, who was wearing LSU issued shorts with his number on them when he stopped by the apartment.

The victim told Magee that he was glad he had security cameras in the apartment, and he planned to review the footage to "see who did it."

Police said that Magee soon left, but returned several minutes later with the X-box and the games that were missing and confessed to the burglary; however, he did not return all of the missing items, according to the report.

Baton Rouge police spokesman Don Coppola said the investigation is ongoing.

According to online records, Magee's bail was set at $10,000.
