Poltergeist haunts Miller Hall
A resident of Miller Hall came into the station Monday to report a disturbance that had been happening for the past three months. The student and their roommate have been regularly noticing pounding on their door at various hours of the night. Curiously, when one goes to answer the door there is never anyone outside. The mysterious pounding has been documented and the case is still under investigation.
Some people should drink in helmets
University Police arrived in Slade Hall just after midnight Saturday for a report of an intoxicated male. The student had been observed vomiting inside a room when a staff member ran across him. He was conscious and alert but his face was scratched and scraped up. The officers could smell alcohol on his breath so they asked where he had been drinking and how he received the injuries. He couldn’t remember exactly where he’d been drinking but remembered falling down outside. The student was asked to put clothes on so he could be brought to the hospital. He will be charged with an underage alcohol violation and protective custody.
WWE, Bentley style
A student came in to the station to report a possible breaking and entering in his Fenway suite. He claimed that the previous day, he had left campus for awhile and upon return noticed someone had kicked through the main door of his room. The locking mechanism was damaged from the impact. Nothing was missing from the room, but a chair from the common room had curiously punched a hole in the student’s bedroom wall before landing on his bed.
When asked if he knew who might have done the strange deed, the student replied he wasn’t sure but figured it was probably someone playing a joke on him. Since his roommates were off campus at the time of the incident, it is still under investigation. Officers took photos of the damage and notified facilities.
Late night potty training exhausts Bentley drinker
Sunday morning, just after 2 a.m., University Police officers responded to a strange call from Forest Hall. A staff member had called for help with an intoxicated male who had locked himself in the basement bathroom. The staff member on duty had been communicating through the door with the student, asking if he was alright when the male suddenly stopped responding and didn’t open the door.
When the Police unlocked the door, they found him sitting fast asleep on the toilet with his pants around his ankles. Once awoken, the officers asked the male to please put on his pants and step out of the bathroom so they could speak with him. Unfortunately, just as he stepped out of the bathroom, the fire alarm went off in the building and the bewildered student was escorted outside. Once safely outdoors it was determined that he was highly intoxicated and needed to be transported to the hospital. He will be charged with an underage alcohol violation, protective custody and public intoxication.
Rowdy males cross streams in stairwell
Two University Resident Assistants were on rounds Saturday morning when they heard what they thought was running water in a stairway around 1 a.m. The “running water” turned out to be actually two students urinating in the stairwell next to the laundry room in Copley North. When the students noticed the staff members, the male who had just finished booked it out the exit. The other guy, who was still peeing, had his back to the staff member and was caught mid-stream.
The Police were called and were able to ID the male, as well as make him clean up the mess with paper towels. The student admitted that he had been drinking, but refused to give officers the name of his partner in crime. He will be charged with disorderly conduct and being uncooperative with administrative personnel. The student was told to go back to his room and not come out for the rest of the night.
Facilities
A staff member in Slade Hall reported seeing the third floor water fountain hanging off the wall. Facilities has been notified and will handle.
Facilities notified dispatch in regards to a raccoon that was around Lot 17. Dispatch notified Animal Control.
