An ASU football player, who was reportedly dismissed from the team due to a rules violation, was arrested on charges of stealing a teammate’s watch and attempting to pawn it, authorities confirmed Tuesday.
Laterrance Welch was arrested and booked on charges of theft and trafficking stolen property around 2:30 p.m. on December 2, according to the Scottsdale Police Department.
The LSU transfer, who played as a cornerback for this year’s Big 12 championship team, stole the watch and tried to pawn it at Estate Watch and Jewelry Company in downtown Scottsdale, police said.
The watch, valued at $30,000, was reported stolen to ASU Police the week prior to Welch’s arrest.
Welch was booked by Scottsdale Police and then transferred to campus police for further investigation.
