Walla Walla's Jones Stumbles At Florida State

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - Jared Jones completed the quartet of Florida State quarterbacks the past year who have been involved in dubious off-field incidents, following his bizarre refigerator binge at a neighboring apartment occupied by three female students.

Jones, 19, a sophomore from Walla Walla who was among the team's prized signees a year ago, was cited for trespassing after Tallahassee police were summoned early Saturday to a near-campus apartment.

The women declined to press charges after Jones apparently stumbled upon their residence, thinking he was visiting a girlfriend around 4 a.m. Saturday. The women opened the door for Jones and he acted as if he knew them while walking in.

"He said, `Hey babe, how are you doing?' I thought I knew this guy from a club or something," said Kerri Crispell, 19.

Jones immediately helped himself to pizza, sandwiches and tortilla chips before the women asked him to leave. When Jones refused, they called police.

The 6-foot-5, 220-pound Jones left after the women called 911. He was outside with a bag of hot dogs when police arrived. They drove him back to his apartment after the women declined to press charges.

"I wasn't really mad at him," Crispell said. "If I see him again, I'll joke with him and ask for my hot dogs back."
