When reporting the arrest of Notre Dame cornerback, Devin Butler, ESPN mistakingly used a photo of Devin Booker of the Phoenix Suns.

Butler was placed under arrest for the suspicion of committing two felonies, battery of a police officer and resisting law enforcement. Five other members of the Notre Dame football team were arrested on the same night in an unrelated incident, involving marijuana and a unlicensed handgun.

Devin Booker himself posted about the mistake on Twitter simply posting “Really…” before tagging ESPN and Sportscenter in the post.

ESPN realized their error and issued an on-air apology to Devin Booker for their mistake.
