The tape documents ane suspect and, according to Chief of Investigations and Administrations Lawrence Pathel, it reveals that there might be more than one person involved in the crime. The tape clearly captures the suspect walking away from the Sumter Street side of the garage. In the background, the cars are engulfed in flames. Pathel said the hat worn by the suspect vaguely resembles a fraternity hat. "We're questioning people in fraternities," Pathel said. The police have no evidence suggesting the suspect had a motive. "It appeared random," Pathel said. "We ion't know that he's in a fraternity." Pathel is counting on the picture to help identify the suspect. "Whoever knows this guy will recognize his features," Pathel said. He hopes people who know the suspect will inform the police. ,RIOfc. wtM&li 252- FEETB 11 Greene St. I 5 Points [ Lining, Inc.

"It's hard to tell students not to drink at the games and really think they'll listen," Satterfield said. "I think it's okay to drink, but when things start to get out of hand, it's time to stop." According to state law, disorderly conduct of any kind is punishable by up to 30 days in jail and up to a $100 fine. "Sometimes during tailgating, people might overindulge in alcohol," Gallman said.
