LSU running back Trey Holly will not face an attempted murder charge following a grand jury decision. The player was suspended from the team after being arrested and charged with attempted murder in August.
The incident occurred in the parking lot of a Baton Rouge apartment complex, where Holly allegedly fired a gun at several people during an argument. No one was injured in the shooting, but Holly was arrested and charged with attempted murder.
The grand jury ultimately decided not to indict Holly on the attempted murder charge, though he still faces charges of aggravated criminal damage to property and illegal use of a weapon. The decision not to charge Holly with attempted murder comes as a relief for the player and his supporters.
LSU had suspended Holly from the team following his arrest, and it remains to be seen whether he will be reinstated now that the attempted murder charges have been dropped. The university has yet to release a statement on the situation.
Holly, a sophomore running back, had been expected to compete for playing time this season before his suspension. The outcome of the legal case will likely impact his future with the team and his ability to continue playing college football.
The decision not to charge Holly with attempted murder is a significant development in the case, and it will be interesting to see how it affects his standing with the LSU football program moving forward.
