Taylor was captured on film chasing Jochen Wiest, 29, after he allegedly lit the tree on fire.
A friend was taking a photo of Taylor and her boyfriend, Brendan McGowan, when he noticed Wiest pull a lighter out of his pocket.
“My boyfriend said ‘He just lit the tree on fire,’” Taylor said. “So I turned around and sure enough, the dude’s standing there with a lighter still in his hand.”
This is the first season Taylor has been able to roll the Toomer’s Oaks as a student – the original trees were poisoned by Harvey Updyke in 2010 – and she wanted to enjoy it.
“He was trying to get away and I was like ‘No, no – not today,” Taylor said. “We just got our trees back.”
Taylor and her boyfriend helped the Auburn Police Division identify Wiest.

The boyfriend just let her chew out some crazy drunk without having her back?

I think it was more of a "Sandra Bullock in the Blind Side don't interrupt her while she's giving an arse chewing to the German" situation but who knows, I wasn't there

So the girl confronts him while the boyfriend just stands there? What a cuck! This is why the pussification of America continues. Girls are choosing these betas, because they can control them. What if that dude attacked her? Mr. Skinny Jeans would've ran away.

AL.com - Meet Auburn student
(what transpired/followed/happened after video footage)
"I was running right behind him past (BBVA) Compass (bank), that little parking lot right behind there," Taylor said. "I was screaming, 'He lit it on fire, he lit it on fire' and by that point all downtown was lit up from the tree it was just blazing flames. So everyone knew something bad had happened. When I was saying that all these guys kind of realized ... it hit them. A few guys around me came and tackled him to the ground to hold him down."
Wiest went east on Magnolia Ave. towards Moe's Original Bar B Que before eventually being taken to the ground by bystanders.
McGowan said Wiest was kicked in the face and back by those who had surrounded the 29-year-old, whose mugshot appears to show an abrasion on his nose.
Amy A. Brooks, a woman from Chelsea, told AL.com she and her husband were nearby as Wiest was being confronted and she called police, who arrested him for public intoxication and later charged him with desecration of a venerable object.
