“LSU Tigers running back Trey Holly was taken into custody on three felony charges after turning himself in, according to what Sherriff Dusty Gates of the Union Parish Sherriff’s Office in Farmerville, LA. told ESPN’s Pete Thamel.
Holly was charged with attempted second-degree murder, illegal use of a weapon, and aggravated criminal damage to property. His bond is $512,000, and the shooting took place on Feb. 9.”
Trey Holly faces one felony count
According to Adam Rittenberg with ESPN, the grand jury charged Holly with one felony count of illegal use of a weapon or dangerous instrumentality. Holly plans to plead not guilty to the count.
Holly wrote a statement about the incident
Per a Feb. 17 post on X, Holly said he was falsely identified for the three felony charges:
“As you guys know I was recently arrested on 3 felony charges. I have been falsely identified, accused, and arrested. I am 100% innocent and the people that know me know this is not my character at all. I was not involved in the incident at all. I was at home which is where the incident took place. I turned myself in because I was notified of an arrest warrant and I wanted to fully cooperate.”
