BLANTON MUSEUM of ART, 1900 Speedway Theft: Sadly, a thief couldn’t buy a vowel so he stole two bronze consonants from a display sign that was affixed to a wall near the Faulkner Plaza. Until the letters are replaced, the plaza area will be known as the _AU_KNER Plaza. Repair cost: $800.00. Occurred between 04/04/14 at 9:00 AM and 04/07/14 at 9:50 AM. JESTER CENTER EAST, 203 East 21st Street Assault: Two 7th floor roommates began to argue about one of the roommate’s sniffling nose. The roommate who has apparently never suffered through an allergy season became so upset he pushed the other roommate several times and threw that roommates cellular telephone. The argument ended when the congested roommate held the assaultive one down until that roommate calmed down. Occurred on 04/08/14 3:30 AM. L. THEO BELLMONT HALL, 2109 San Jacinto Criminal Trespass Warning: A non-UT subject was reported as sleeping by the trash dumpsters located on the south side of the building. The subject received a wake-up call in the form of a written criminal trespass warning. Occurred on 04/08/14 at 2:01 AM. MUSIC RECITAL HALL, 2405 Trinity Theft: A Selmer Paris Series II Alto Saxophone was stolen when it was left in an unsecured locker located on the second floor. Loss value: $2,000.00. Occurred between 04/02/14 at 5:15 PM and 04/07/14 at 4:05 PM. Crime Prevention Tip: An unsecured locker is music to the ears of a thief. Locker thefts happen with such frequency because many thieves know students use lockers to hide their property rather than secure it. Invest the few dollars and tie to secure your valuables inside a locker with a quality key operated pad lock. PERRY-CASTAÑEDA LIBRARY, 101 East 21st Street Theft: A UT student borrowed his friend’s Specialized bike and cable lock. The student “secured” the bicycle to the bike racks located on the north side of the library. The student returned to the bicycle rack three days later to discover the bicycle had been stolen. Loss value: $700.00. Occurred between 04/04/14 at 8:45 AM and 04/07/14 at 1:00 PM. Crime Prevention Tip: With friends like this who needs a bike? Just kidding…note the owner of the bike also loaned his cable lock to the student which indicates that is the level of security the friend was comfortable with. A cable lock is also the level of security most bike thieves are comfortable with. Use a quality u-lock for minimum security. Use a quality u-lock and a self-locking cable lock to protect your bike or in this case, your friend’s bike. STUDENT SERVICES BUILDING, 100 West Dean Keeton Theft: An iPhone 4S was stolen after it was left inside a ground floor men’s restroom. Loss value: $255.00. Occurred on 04/08/14 between 1:45 AM and 2:15 AM.
