Auburn freshman DL still with program after stealing scooter, being arrested
After being arrested Friday evening and charged with larceny theft of property in the third degree, Auburn freshman defensive lineman Wilky Denaud is still with the Tigers’ program, a spokesperson for Auburn football confirmed to AL.com Tuesday.
Per records obtained by AL.com, a complaint stating Denuad knowingly obtained or exerted unauthorized control of an electric scooter not belonging to him was filed on Aug. 30.
With the scooter being valued at $650, Denauld’s charge was in the third degree, meaning the stolen property was valued at more than $500 but less than $1,500. Larceny theft of property in the third degree is a felony in the state of Alabama.
Denaud wasn’t arrested until Sept. 1, when he was booked at the Lee County jail around 4:30 p.m. and was later released minutes after 8 p.m. after posting his bond amount, which was set at $1,500.
A 4-star defensive line prospect out of John Carroll High School in Fort Pierce, Fla., Denaud has yet to appear in his first game for the Auburn Tigers.
