BEAT of the Week
Aug. 28 – Underage Intoxication (Building Q) – UPD was dispatched to the Osprey Crossings after an intoxicated student entered the wrong room and proceeded to climb into an occupied bed. When the female student in the bed asked him what he was doing, he replied that he was just trying to go to bed. The girl’s roommates and the intoxicated student’s roommate helped lead him back to the right room. When the student spoke to UPD, he told them he did not recall walking into the girl’s room or trying to climb into her bed. Officers then transported the student to Gateway Detox because of the .09 and .10 he blew on the portable breathalyzer test. When the student got there, his alcohol level was under the legal limit, so officers brought the student back to campus, and he was referred to Student Conduct.
