Industrial ISD graduate and former varsity baseball player Braxton Cole Warren has been arrested, making him the fourth suspect arrested for an assault alleged to happen in April.

A Jackson County Grand Jury indicted Warren along with Zachery James Kuchler, Christopher Taylor McCrory, and Cullen Reid Stumfoll, all former varsity players on the Cobra baseball team and 2023 graduates of Industrial, for Engaging in Organized Criminal Activity – Assault Causing Bodily Injury.

McCrory, Stumfoll, and Kuchler were arrested on July 20 and assigned $10,000 bonds each. All posted bond the same day and were released.

All four stand accused of assaulting a younger player, who is not being named by the Jackson County Herald-Tribune, following a baseball game on April 27.

Warren was booked into the Jackson County Jail just after 1 p.m. today, July 24, and was released on $10,000 bond approximately an hour and a half later.
