Final Campus Police Beat

I’m done with classes for my last semester of college! Too bad I won’t be getting the police beat anymore from the campus paper. This week was a good one though. Enjoy.


1. Suspects in a white Chevrolet pickup were throwing snowballs at people near Helaman Halls. Officers were able to apprehend the suspects and give them a verbal warning.
2. An officer was dispatched because of several persons dressed only in bikinis in the Quad. They were gone on the officer’s arrival.
3. A male student threw a snowball at another male by the JFS building. He was cited for disorderly conduct.
4. A female student living in off-campus housing received a phone call from a male caller asking her if she would like to answer a few questions. He told her to lie down on the floor and relax. She felt uncomfortable, so she put the phone on the floor. After a while she could hear the man yelling, so she hung up.
5. A student set papers on fire on the bulletin board in W-hall in Deseret Towers. After he lit the papers he yelled “Fire” and left the area.
6. A male visitor was looking up Satanic Web sites in the library. He was asked to leave the premises.
7. Officers were dispatched to the Wilkinson Student Center after it was reported that two males had been shaking vending machines. The officers located the suspects who showed them a signature card transaction of the items they purchased.

The moral of the story is. No snowball throwing, No bikinis, and no shaking vending machines when your purchase doesn’t come out or someone will call the cops on you.
