Six Kentucky football players have been charged with burglary Thursday stemming from a March 2021 incident, according to multiple reports.

According to Fox Lexington anchor Kristen Pflum, one of the players also faces wanton endangerment charge for allegedly pointing a gun. Pflum’s report is below:

“On Saturday, March 6, 2021, there was a private party being thrown at a residence. During the party, three individuals entered the residence uninvited and were asked to leave. The individuals became upset and threatened they would return.

A short time later, the three individuals returned with additional subjects. The group forced their way into the residence. One suspect was observed pointing a firearm at a victim.

As a result of the investigation, the six subjects listed below have been charged with Burglary 1st Degree. Mr. Devito Tisdale has also been charged with Wanton Endangerment 1st Degree based on being identified as the suspect pointing a handgun at one of the victims.”

The 6 players charged with burglary, first degree, are Reuben (RJ) Adams, Robert (JuTahn) McClain, Andru Phillips, Earnest Sanders IV, Devito (Vito) Tisdale and Joel Williams.

Tisdale is a key piece in Kentucky’s defensive cog ahead of the 2021 season, too.

These charges are the third legal issue the Wildcats program has had this offseason.
