The off-campus arrest of several students on Thursday night has prompted University officials to denounce the behavior, while maintaining that this is not how most TCU students act.

Police arrested three students on suspicion of furnishing alcohol to minors Thursday night. According to a police report, officers arrived at a home in the 3500 block of Rogers Avenue after receiving a call that “a person with a blowtorch was chasing another person attempting to set them on fire.”

Officers issued 11 tickets for minor in possession and arrested Casey Tounget, 21, John Ryan Bosworth, 20, and Macdonald Wesner, 21 on suspicion of furnishing alcohol to minors, a Class A misdemeanor.

Randy Myers, Tounget’s attorney, said in an email that he has not seen an official police report but he questioned the police response.

“It is very unusual that a search of the entire home would have been legal under these circumstances, without a warrant or consent,” Myers wrote in an email.

He noted that eight officers and four squad cars “raided the home and began searching the premises and searching through bedrooms and drawers and closets throughout the house.”

According to Myers a blow torch was not found but they did discover a couch burning in a fire pit.

TCU released a statement Saturday stating, “it is unfortunate that some of our students behaved in this manner, especially so close on the heels of Wednesday's events.”

Despite the off campus incident, the statement said they believe the majority of TCU students make wise choices: “The few who don't must learn to be like the majority who do.”

Tounget, a junior business major from Austin, serves as the Interfraternity Council president according to TCU’s website. Wesner is a junior from Dallas and Bosworth is a junior business major from Houston.

It was unclear Sunday evening what their status is with the university.
