According to college football insider Pete Thamel, freshman LSU Tigers running back Trey Holly has been taken into custody on three felony charges, one of which includes attempted second-degree murder.

Holly is also being charged with aggravated criminal damage and illegal use of a weapon. These charges are reportedly related to a shooting on Feb. 9.

After turning himself into the authorities on Thursday, Holly is currently being held on a $512,000 bond in Farmersville, Louisiana.

LSU’s statement acknowledged they are “aware that a student-athlete has been arrested in relation to a shooting in Union Parish.” The Tigers have since announced they’ve suspended Holly indefinitely from all team activities.
