Teens Break Into Arena in Louisiana, Cause $50,000 in Damage

A teenager is wanted after he and two others allegedly broke into the Raising Cane’s River Center in Downtown Baton Rouge.

WBRZ reports, “Javin Thomas, 17, is wanted for simple burglary and simple criminal damage to property over $50,000 — both of which are felonies.”

According to records, two males and a female entered the arena by throwing a rock into a door and entering via the broken glass door.

Upon entry, the suspects allegedly grabbed the fire extinguishers in the arena and sprayed them throughout the hallways. They ultimately made their way up to the second floor of the building and threw the extinguishers at several 80-inch televisions.

Each monitor is reportedly valued at $5,000 each.

The destruction by those in the arena did not stop there, WBRZ reports that the suspects then damaged concessions and soda machines.

It is estimated that the three suspects were in the arena for nearly 45 minutes.

Anyone with information in this case is urged to call 344-7867. Here’s a look at the 17-year-old who is wanted for this involvement in the burglary.
