A ticket broker who was arrested outside the Fresno State-Nebraska football game last year has filed a civil rights lawsuit, contending campus police didn’t have probable cause to arrest and detain him for reselling game-day tickets.
Pete Kennedy said Wednesday he was doing a public service when he tried to resell about 50 tickets outside Bulldog Stadium before kickoff.
“I was trying to get people in the stadium so they could enjoy the game,” he said.
And when he was told by campus police to leave, he said he left the stadium grounds and set up shop on a public sidewalk.
