LSU WR Koy Moore Says Baton Rouge Police Violated Him During Search For Gun

On Saturday night, LSU wide receiver Koy Moore claimed that officers from the Baton Rouge Police Department “violated him” in an incident.

Moore reported that officers searched him multiple times for drugs and weapons. He claims that he was approached by officers with their guns out yelling “where’s your guns.” Moore went on to say that he was searched “multiple times and going as far as to unzip his pants for a weapon that he did not have.”

Moore tried to record this incident but had his phone confiscated. “As I tried to go live for video documentation of the harassment, they snatched my phone,” he wrote. “I couldn’t lost my life and I know for a fact nothing wouldn’t have happened to the guys who did it. As some celebrate the election of a new president, understand the real problem has not changed. If I didn’t tell those incompetent officers that I was an LSU football player, there’s no telling if I wouldn’t been here to tell the story.”

LSU head coach Ed Orgeron responded to his statement by releasing one of his own saying he was aware of the situation that occurred on Saturday. Orgeron mentioned that the incident is being investigated and called for unity to help combat racism in a tweet.
