Murrysville police arrested six men after a video surfaced online showing damage to golf carts and turf at the Rolling Fields Golf Club in Murrysville. The men have been charged with criminal mischief and conspiracy.

Video posted to a YouTube channel called WTR, which police said stands for “White Trash Renegade,” showed six young men at the golf course on Oct. 4. The video shows the men “placing a large amount of alcoholic beverages in their golf carts and then heading out onto the course,” according to a criminal complaint.

Police said the video shows the men crashing the carts and damaging turf on the course. Police Chief Tom Seefeld said the incident occurred during regular business hours.

Rolling Fields officials could not be immediately reached for comment. The club estimated damage at $1,677, including damage to turf and two golf carts, according to the criminal complaint.

Club golf pro Dick Logan saw the video posted to YouTube on Oct. 12 and helped police identify the men. Murrysville police contacted one of the men, Logan Price, 21, of New Kensington, who they said confirmed the identity of the other participants.

In addition to Price, the following also are charged with criminal mischief and criminal conspiracy: Ryan T. Connelly, 21, Jonathan Godleski, 20, Zachary M. Scholze, 19, all of New Kensington; Dylan Smith, 21, of Monroeville; and Jacob M. Williams, 21, of Plum.

Preliminary hearings are scheduled Dec. 3 before District Judge Charles Conway in Export.
