Drunk Husker tries, fails to make jump over vehicle before football game

Trying to tackle Melvin Gordon could have felt like being hit by a car to Nebraska players, but one Nebraska fan felt that all too literally.

Police detained 22-year-old Bryce Consbruck at the intersection of North Broom Street and West Gorham Street after Consbruck caused a traffic disturbance early Saturday morning, according to a Madison Police Department incident report.

According to MPD, Consbruck was in Madison visiting from Nebraska for Saturday’s football game.

However, around 2 a.m., Consbruck intentionally attempted to leap over a moving Union Cab vehicle, Lt. Eric Tripke wrote in the report. In failing to do so, Consbruck sustained minor injuries to his face.

Consbruck was intoxicated during his interview and used profanity in his statement to police. After transporting him to a local hospital, police cited Consbruck for sudden pedestrian movement before his release.

In his statement to officers, Consbruck promised to "never try and jump over a moving car again," according to the MPD report.
