A Fort Wayne teen was arrested near campus early this morning after police say a family returned home and found him passed out on their toilet.

Elliott Sweazey, 19, was charged with illegal consumption of alcohol after residents of the house on the 1200 block of W. Ashland Street, between University and Ashland Avenues, said they found him sitting in their bathroom with his sweatshirt pulled over his head at 3:14 a.m. Saturday, according to a press release.

There was no indication that anything had been stolen or damaged, Indiana Excise Corporal Brandon Thomas said. Sweazey is thought to have entered the house through an unlocked back door.

A breath test showed Sweazey’s blood alcohol content at .16 percent, double the legal level for intoxication in adults.
