Two Syracuse football players arrested for stealing boots, computer and PlayStation 4

Two Syracuse football players were arrested for stealing two pairs of boots, a laptop and a PlayStation 4, according to Sgt. Richard Helterline of the Syracuse Police Department.

Redshirt freshman defensive end Jaquqan Nelson, 19, was charged Thursday with second-degree burglary and fourth-degree grand larceny. Redshirt freshman safety Devon Clarke, 19, was charged Friday with second-degree burglary and fifth-degree criminal possession of stolen property.

Nelson and Clarke entered a South Campus residence at 241 Winding Ridge Road and stole the property in Dec. 2016, Hertline said.

Both Nelson and Clarke, Florida natives who have not played for SU, have been released from the Onondaga County Justice Center.
