Getting Handsy
At 9:30 p.m. on Monday Oct.1, a female student said she called a male RA to come to her apartment in University Place because she was having an on-going disagreement with her roommate about touching other people’s personal property. Her roommate then reported that while in the apartment, the male RA grabbed her by the arm and would not let her go back to her room. The RA insists that he never touched her and that he could not even get her to open her door all the way to speak to her. There were no visible marks or bruises on her arm, and her roommate who originally called the RA did not witness the exchange. Police advised the RA’s that should they need to return to the apartment, they should do so in groups of two or more.
Hide and Seek
Officers were dispatched to University Village in reference to a suspicious odor on Tuesday Oct. 2 at 10:50 p.m. A female student opened the door and she and her roommate gave permission for police to search the apartment. While conducting the search, a pipe was found in one of the bedrooms in a box on the student’s desk. Nothing was found in the other bedroom, although officers noticed a window was open. Officers went outside of the apartment to continue the search and found a black bag containing a pipe and marijuana under the open window. One of the female students admitted the first pipe was hers, while a male visitor said the black bag outside the window was his. The female student and the male visitor were both arrested for possession of marijuana.
KSU Con Artist
A female student came to the Public Safety lobby to report a theft on Friday Oct. 5, at 7:30 a.m. The student stated that on Sept. 30 she responded to an ad on Craigslist about an Apple iPhone 4S for sale. The male posting the ad said he was also a student at KSU, and the two decided to meet on Monday, Oct. 1, between 3-3:15 p.m. by the Commons to complete the transaction. The female student paid $285 for the iPhone, but two days later when trying to activate the phone, was told that it had been reported stolen and would not be able to use it. The female student gave the iPhone to the police and completed a voluntary statement of facts form about the incident.
