CHEMICAL PETROLEUM ENGINEERING, 200 East Dean Keeton Theft: A burgundy colored Specialized Rockhopper bicycle was stolen while it was “secured” with a cable lock to the bicycle racks located on the west side of the building. Loss value: $200.00. Occurred on 07/22/14 between 9:30 AM and 7:30 PM. INTERNATIONAL OFFICE, 2400 Seton Criminal Trespass Warning: A non-UT subject was reported as pressing his bare upper torso against the exterior windows of the office as he “peered” into the building and watched staff members. The subject was located a short distance away and issued a written criminal trespass warning. Occurred on 07/23/14 at 1:38 PM. 1300 IH 35 South Frontage Road Driving While Intoxicated: A non-UT subject was stopped for operating a vehicle at night without its headlamps turned on and failing to maintain a single lane. The subject initially admitted to having consumed a single alcoholic beverage before recanting and admitting to having consumed more. The field sobriety tests made the officer believe the subject’s second declaration regarding her alcohol consumption more than her first statement and she was believed to have been driving while intoxicated. Occurred on 07/24/14 at 12:56 AM. 100 West Martin Luther King Driving While Intoxicated: A UT student, who was under the age of 21, was stopped for running a red light while driving a blue Ford Focus 4-door. Despite the odor emanating from the student’s breath, she avowed that she had not been drinking alcoholic beverages. After a series of field sobriety tests, the officer believed the student was not truthful in her statement about her alcohol consumption and she was believed to have been driving while intoxicated. Occurred on 07/24/14 at 1:29 AM. 200 West 6th Street Public Intoxication: A non-UT subject was observed staggering as she maneuvered west along the sidewalk. A UT student was seen walking behind the subject. A security guard reported to the officer that the non-UT subject had been observed evacuating the alcohol from her system a little earlier in the evening. The officer then observed the subject kicking a fence. The officer stopped the assault on the fence and learned the subject was upset because she had lost her property. The subject was found to be under the influence of an alcoholic beverage to the point she was a danger to her foot, the fence and her property. In lieu of arrest, the subject was turned over to her friend – the UT student. Occurred on 07/24/14 at 3:03 AM. The University of Texas Police Department responded to 17 Alarm Reports, 1 “Police Help” Call Box Activation, 12 Traffic Violations, 1 Collision, 4 Public Assist Requests, 1 Found Property Report, 3 Unsecured Door Reports and 10 Suspicious Activity Reports between 07/23/14 and 07/24/14.
