Braves Fan Arrested Attempting to Bring Cocaine in Cowboy Boot to SunTrust Park

Dustin Luther Wilkes was arrested at SunTrust Park in Georgia last Wednesday after allegedly trying to bring cocaine into the stadium inside a cowboy-style boot for an MLB game between the Atlanta Braves and New York Mets.

Rosie Manins of the Marietta Daily Journal reported Thursday that Wilkes set off the metal detector while attempting to enter SunTrust Park. A subsequent search led stadium security staff to discover a "clear plastic baggie with a white powder substance suspected to be cocaine" which Wilkes twice attempted to conceal during the search.
