A teenager accused of shining a laser pointer onto the field during a St. Louis Cardinals game Aug. 6 had his arraignment continued until late November on Wednesday.

Eric Bogard, 17, of Creve Coeur, was scheduled to appear in St. Louis municipal court on charges of peace disturbance at an athletic event and violating a city ordinance regulating possession and use of lasers. Bogard is a student at Ladue Horton Watkins High School.

During an Aug. 6 game with the San Francisco, the Cardinals’ Matt Holliday stepped out of the batter’s box after spotting the green laser pointer on a Giants reliever.

Cardinals manager Mike Matheny told authorities he spotted Bogard shining the laser onto the field and pointed him out to security guards. Matheny later identified Bogard as the culprit.

Bogard had been sitting in the Mercy Health System’s luxury box at the stadium. A Mercy Health Systems executive resigned over the incident after authorities said she was uncooperative with their investigation.
