Police say seven Lehigh University football players have been charged in an off-campus break-in meant as revenge, but they targeted the wrong northeastern Pennsylvania home.
Bethlehem police say two men in the house used a university football roster to identify the suspects in the Nov. 8 intrusion.
They told police the men kicked in the doors as they slept and one was punched in the face.

Police say the group was seeking revenge for an alleged attack on a fraternity president.
A university spokeswoman says the students' conduct is being reviewed.
