A University of Georgia student was arrested for felony criminal damage early Friday after he admittedly broke an antique window at a house on Dearing Street after a resident denied him use of the bathroom, Athens-Clarke County police said.

Police said they were called to the victim's home at about 3:40 a.m. on a complaint about a trespasser who did some damage and left the scene, walking toward Milledge Avenue.

The resident said a young white male wearing a UGA hoodie knocked on his door asking to use the bathroom, and about five minutes after the resident turned away the visitor there was a loud noise, police said.

The resident went out to investigate he found the same male standing next to a broken window. The male offered to pay for the damage and threw $20 onto the porch and then walked away, according to police.

The resident "claimed that the house was built around 1890 and that the window panes were original," according to the police report, with each lead-based window pane valued at about $5,000.

Armed with "an extremely accurate description" of the destructive trespasser, police found and detained 19-year-old Giovanni Goffredo Petronelli, who was then taken to the house on Dearing Street for positive identification, police said.

The trespasser left behind a Baltimore Ravens football jersey, which Pretronelli claimed as his, police said. The student then recounted how he was on his way home from drinking downtown when he stopped at the victim's residence and knocked on the door to ask if he could use the bathroom. He admitted to police he become upset when his request was denied by the resident who answered the door.

"Mr. Petronelli would not tell me how he broke the window, but did state that he did break it, " an officer noted in the police report.

The student was then arrested, and police said that when searching him they found identification for Petronelli from Maryland, which "was likely a fake."

Petronelli was charged with second-degree criminal damage, underage consumption of alcohol and possession of fake ID.

About an hour after being booked into the Clarke County Jail, he posted a total bond of $8,000 and was released, according to the jail's website.
