According to a Bluffton Police Department spokesman Maj. Joe Manning, the victim and two other witnesses saw Blackshear take the items from the home. The contents of the purse and safe were valued at $1,390.
Blackshear was charged with one count of petit larceny.
He was taken to Beaufort County Detention Center and held overnight and released Saturday morning on a $1,092.50 personal recognizance bond.
South Carolina said it was aware of the incident and that it was waiting for the legal process to work out. Blackshear has a scheduled court date for March 3.
Blackshear was a four-star defensive end, who was rated as the No. 5 player in the state of South Carolina. Blackshear, who was the Gamecocks first signee of the 2015 class, missed parts of the past two seasons with injuries, including a torn ACL he suffered last September.
