Last week, a pair of bullets damaged the exterior of Lambeau Field. This week, a pair of men got on the inside of another NFL stadium.
The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports that a trio of twentysomethings were arrested after two of them scaled a gate at Heinz Field via the construction of a “human ladder.”
Two men, Shazad Hosi Mehta, 28, and Noshir Medhora, 27, were detained at gunpoint after getting into the facility. Adil A. Minocherhomjee, 22, did not enter Heinz Field. The men were charged with criminal trespass and conspiracy to commit criminal trespass.
They claimed they were looking for a wallet they had left at a game. In December.
“The story’s not credible,” Sgt. Patrick Knepp told the Post-Gazette.
It’s not the first time this has occurred. In November 2006, two Carnegie Mellon students were charged with attempting to get into Heinz Field. One claimed that they had tickets for an upcoming game, and that they wanted to see where their seats would be. The other claimed they were going to shoot a music video.
They should have said that they’d lost their wallets.
