RAD class scheduled from 5-9pm on Tuesdays October 15, October 22 and October 29th 2300 GAUDALUPE STREET Public Intoxication: A UT Police Officer observed a UT Student staggering down the side walk in the 2300 block of Guadalupe Street. The subject then ran into a wall at the entryway of Austin’s Pizza. The subject smelled of alcohol and did not know if he was coming or going as stated he was, “coming from the same address he was going to.” The subject was under legal drinking age of 21 and admitted to having, “no more than four” whiskey drinks. When given the opportunity to phone a sober adult the subject requested his phone back from the UT Police Officer. The only problem with the subject’s request was that he never provided the UT Police Officer a phone and did not possess a phone. When the UT Police Officer told him that he did not have his phone, the subject went “007” and pulled out his BMW car keys and began to use his thumb in a “dialing motion” on the electronic key fob attached to his keys. (I couldn’t make this up if I tried!) After the failed key fob phone call, the UT Police Officer determined the subject was intoxicated to a level in which he was a danger to himself and/or others. The subject was arrested for Public Intoxication and was transported to Central Booking. Occurred on: 10/11/13, at 2:59 AM. INTRAMURAL FIELDS, 4901 GUADALUPE STREET Burglary of Vehicle: A UT Student reported his rear passenger window broken out on his vehicle.
