Florida Team Manager Reportedly Involved In Eirk Murphy And Cody Larson Burglary Incident

We have an update to the Erik Murphy and Cody Larson arrest story. They were reportedly joined by a third man, and according to the Orlando Sentinel, that man was a team manager; and that he and Erik Murphy had to convince Larson to turn himself in to Police. 

The three ran after employees confronted them. Sgt. Jason Etheredge said Adel was apprehended about a block later. Police officers convinced (team manager Joshua) Adel to call Murphy, who walked back to where the police were and was handcuffed. . .

“The third guy, Cody, calls Joshua, probably seven or eight times while they're in the back of the car and they're discussing how they're going to get out of it, pretty much burying themselves,” Etheredge said. “Cody, after about seven or eight phone calls, the other two said, ‘Hey man, you gotta turn yourself in.’"

Larson came to Florida with concerns about his character stemming from a few prescription drug related incidents in High School. The University has not issued a statement on the incident, but we will pass that along when it becomes available.
