A former K-State student who made national headlines last month for a Snapchat photo that went viral has been arrested in Geary County.
Saturday’s arrest report from the Geary County Sheriff’s office indicates Paige Shoemaker was taken into custody Friday evening shortly after 5:30 for theft.
Shoemaker’s name was incorrectly spelled on the original report which delayed the connection.
Shoemaker apologized for what’s been described as a racist picture but not before the photo went viral, drawing responses from K-State officials and the Black Student Union at K-State. Shoemaker was expelled from K-State in 2015.
