Police in Michigan are investigating a parent accused of entering a rival high school and defecating in a corridor during a district championship football game, The Guardian reported, citing Detroit television station WXYZ.

The incident allegedly happened Friday at Grosse Pointe South, which was playing Bedford High School. The suspect, described as a Bedford supporter, was identified through surveillance video and told investigators he had experienced a medical emergency, according to the report.

Grosse Pointe Farms detective Anto Trupiano told WXYZ that the man entered through a doorway left open for a band concert. Police allege he walked past several bathrooms before defecating in a school doorway.

“This is definitely a first,” Trupiano told the broadcaster.

In a statement quoted by The Guardian, the Grosse Pointe public school district called the behaviour “wholly unacceptable” and inconsistent with its standards for visitors. The district said adults attending school sporting events should model the teamwork, sportsmanship and respect taught to students.
