Parent accused of defecating inside Grosse Pointe South during football game

A parent affiliated with Bedford High School has been accused of entering Grosse Pointe South High School in Michigan during a district championship football game between the two schools on Friday, and of defecating inside the building.

According to Grosse Pointe Farms detective Anto Trupiano, the suspect came in through a doorway that had been left open for a band concert. He then walked past several bathrooms and defecated in a doorway in the middle of the school, the Guardian reported.

Investigators identified the suspect using surveillance video. He claimed to have had a medical emergency, according to the same reporting. Footage also shows him taking off his sweatshirt before running for the exit, WXYZ reported.

The Grosse Pointe public school district said the behavior was wholly unacceptable and inconsistent with the standards of conduct and respect expected of anyone entering its facilities. The district said the individual entered the building without authorization. Grosse Pointe Public Schools has filed a police report about the incident and says it will cooperate with law enforcement.

Bedford Public Schools Superintendent Dr. Carl Shultz said the district is fully cooperating with the host district and local law enforcement. He said Bedford cannot comment further because of privacy considerations and the active police inquiry.
