Six Charged With Trespassing After Allegedly Climbing Onto Byrneville Elementary Roof
February 7, 2020
Six young adults from Century and Flomaton have been charged with trespassing after allegedly climbing onto the roof of Byrneville Elementary School outside school hours.
Ashley Marie Walther, 19, Try Morris, 19, Levi Dalton Wagner, 19, Grayson Stafford, 20, Alexandria Brook Lambeth, 20, and Brandon Kyle Jones, 20, were each charged with second degree misdemeanor trespassing on school grounds. Jones was also charged with criminal mischief with property damage. All have been released from the Escambia County Jail.
The Escambia County Sheriff’s Office responded to Byrneville Elementary School where the principal said an awning was damaged over a January weekend.
Surveillance video shows a golf cart with four males and a white vehicle with two females pull into the school’s parking lot before all of the individuals climbed onto the roof of the school. The video then shows a male jump onto an awning, followed by a second male that fell through the awning. Damage was estimated at $2,500. All of the individuals then left the area.
Deputies questioned Morris, Walther and Lambeth before arrest warrants were issued. Under Florida law, their statements were redacted from the arrest reports, but a deputy noted that all three were “very truthful”.

Somehow William 2 (comment)seems to feel it’s okay for these young adults,( and they are that whether or not they act like it), to tear up a school because it is a less dangerous crime. Even if they didn’t mean to. The parents and staff of this school have been trying to raise money to improve the school . Now these 6 come along and do damage which has to be paid for and causes a negative impact to those efforts. If you want to be all ‘nostalgic’ – go and visit your old school during school hours as a volunteer. That’s even cooler I assure you. Nope, not perfect. Just wondering why people that work so hard to get out of school want to go back and play on the roof after hours. Choices have consequences. The choice of these young people this time involved my kids’ school.
Ok teenagers trying to find something to do and have fun.
AT LEAST THERE NOT OUT HERE DRINKING AND DRIVING OR ROBBING STORES.
Come’on so they climed on the roof top and jumped down on the awning..ok but i doubt it was 2500 worth of damage…
@ oof & dylan. they should try doing what i and several others from this area were doing for entertainment when we were 18. Being in the Marines and we grew up real fast.
Yes, I misread the color on the golf cart, the fact is that white, camo, black or brown golf carts ( drivers and passengers) have no business trespassing on private property or public property after hours, when the intentions are pure mischievous. The way this world has become, an innocent night of fun could turn for the worse as property owners try to protect their own. It isn’t like it used to be, everyone is always on guard.
With any luck, this will be the dumbest thing they ever do.
Get dunked on
Some of yall needs to read better Says a golf cart no color mentioned and a white vechile pulled up
It’s funny how all y’all can bash on and talk about these kids through y’alls phones lol no doubt wht they did was childish and immature but it’s a lesson learned. They didn’t intentionally fall through the roof they didn’t break into the place they wasn’t sellin dope killing people. But y’all are all perfect Christians who never done wrong though
Everyone ragging on them, it must be nice to never have messed up when you were younger. In my book that’s the only way you can say anything negative about the situation.
@justsaying the golf cart wasn’t even white! Know your facts or keep your comments to yourself! Just saying!
High School Yearbook Addendum, “My First Arrest Record”
Seems like a few months of clean up work around the school would be a good way for them to show their gratitude for a good education and promise of making better choices in the future.
These are 19 and 20 year old’s. Not kids. Not high schoolers. Time to grow up.
What the heck is wrong with you Grayson and Alex! Both of you are way better then this! How can you be so stupid!
wow They got off easy. No one but Jones had to pay for a bond. They did not even spend 5 minutes in jail.
Come on. How stupid can one person or 6 be. Doesn’t everyone know by now that schools have cameras. They should be made to go to all Elementary Schools and clean up behind these little kids. They should also have to pay for damages out of their own pockets not their parents. I am sure theirs parents are proud of them now.
OK, So twenty years from now they will have a funny story to tell their kids but for now they have a not so funny story for their parents. Just how cool would it had been to sit up there on the roof of your old elementary school and reminisce about the good old days? Sounds kind of nostalgic.
They weren’t being destructive, well not on purpose, they weren’t stealing, they were just trying to have a good time, They messed up, time to own it and move on.
When I say own it, that is accept the punishment and pay restitution.
Dorks! Act like you got some sense…
Come on guys…….
Gotta be better than that.
Restitution and community service at the school.
If no other record.
This white golf cart seems to show up on other cameras too! Time to grow up, before serious trouble comes.
They were only trying to get an HIGHER education !!
uhh? no one noticed the cameras? i’m guessing none are beta club members.
Nothing like getting one’s fingerprints rolled and photograph taken, and then making headline news on NorthEscambia.com. And why? Mean while, open your pockets and pay for the damages before you go to court and maybe, just maybe the judge take it easy on all of you’s guys.
Nothing better to do? This is something 14 yr olds would do. Time to grow up!
danged goofy kids
