Reds fan who took selfie video while running onto field during game arrested

CINCINNATI -- A 19-year-old Indiana man accused of running across the field during a Cincinnati Reds home game has been arrested.

Justin Buchanan of Noblesville, Indiana, was arrested Thursday night at the Cincinnati police headquarters. He is charged with criminal trespassing on a place of public amusement, a first-degree misdemeanour.

Police say Buchanan entered the field at Great American Ballpark during the eighth inning of Wednesday night's game against the Chicago Cubs. The Cincinnati Enquirer reports that Buchanan recorded himself on his cellphone as he sprinted toward centre field, then scaled a 10-foot fence before running out of the stadium.
