ESPN HOST ARRESTED IN WYOMING 'Criminal Entry'

[Enfuego]

ESPN host Ryen Russillo -- who's appeared on ESPN radio and TV since 2009 -- was arrested in Wyoming for criminal entry ... TMZ Sports has learned.

We know 42-year-old Russillo was taken into custody on Wednesday and is still locked up as of the time of this post, according to officials.

Details surrounding Russillo's arrest are unclear. We're working on it.

Russillo currently has his own show on ESPNews -- "The Ryen Russillo Show" -- but he's obviously not hosting today. Will Cain is filling in and announced he'll be doing so the rest of the week.

Ryen previously co-hosted the "SVP and Russillo" show on ESPN with Scott Van Pelt.

He's a pretty smart guy, 1 of the few people in sports media you would actually wanna listen to if you wanna learn about what is happening in the sport as opposed to sensationalist hot takes.

I wonder why he was in Wyoming and what this trespass charge is?

In the state of Wyoming, criminal entry is a misdemeanor similar to trespassing:

6-3-302. Criminal entry; penalties; affirmative defenses.

(a) A person is guilty of criminal entry if, without authority, he knowingly enters a building, occupied structure, vehicle or cargo portion of a truck or trailer, or a separately secured or occupied portion of those enclosures.

(b) It is an affirmative defense to prosecution under this section that:

(i) The entry was made because of a mistake of fact or to preserve life or property in an emergency;

(ii) The enclosure was abandoned;

(iii) The enclosure was at the time open to the public and the person complied with all lawful conditions imposed on access to or remaining in the enclosure; or

(iv) The person reasonably believed that the owner of the enclosure, or other person empowered to license access to the enclosure, would have authorized him to enter.

(c) Criminal entry is a misdemeanor punishable by imprisonment for not more than six (6) months, a fine of not more than seven hundred fifty dollars ($750.00), or both.

[FONT=&quot]11:43 AM PT -- Russillo drunkenly passed out in a stranger's bed ... cops say.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Long story short, cops were called to a home by the owner around 3:30 AM on Wednesday to report a strange man sleeping in one of the bedrooms. [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]When cops arrived, they found Russillo who appeared to be hammered out of his face -- "blood shot glassy eyes, very slurred speech and could not answer questions coherently, all signs of alcohol intoxication."[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Cops say Russillo didn't know where he was or where he was supposed to be staying. [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Officers also don't believe he forced entry -- and say he got in the house through a door that hadn't been secured properly.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]He was charged with criminal trespass -- and could face a $750 fine.
