Why they arrest him?
They should have just let him go on his way.
This is mean.
The St. Petersburg Police Dept. tells TMZ Sports … on July 26, Daniel Neja — who cops say is homeless — somehow got into the closed home of the Tampa Bay Rowdies and began squatting in the facility.
Cops say surveillance cameras captured the 39-year-old moving around Al Lang Stadium freely … eating and drinking things from the concession area, as well as snagging Rowdies clothes and memorabilia from the team store.
Cops say Neja ultimately ended up taking more than $1,000 worth of stuff … and an additional $250 from the concession area.
Officials say Neja was only caught because a cleaning crew noticed personal items like shaving cream and razors in the suite he had allegedly been living in.
He is being held in jail, but he can’t pay the $5k bond to get out.
Just let that man go.
