PRATHER HALL DORMITORY, 305 East 21st Street Public Intoxication: A UT student, who was under the age of 21, was reported as being unconscious and lying near a pool of his disgorged chymus.

UNION BUILDING, 2308 Whitis Assault by Contact / Evading Arrest or Detention / Criminal Trespass: Two non-UT subjects were reported as causing a disturbance inside the Union Building. After being separated, the officer began to interview one of the participants who quickly ran towards the other subject. The officer, having reflexes like a cat, was able to stop the subject before she made it to the other subject. That subject was physically restrained despite her best efforts to run free. It was later learned that prior to being separated, the now restrained subject had pushed the other in the chest. That subject was taken into custody for assault. Speaking of the other subject, he was found to have previously been issued a written criminal trespass warning for the Union Building. To prevent further disturbances, two patrol cars were used to transport both parties to the local lock-up. Occurred on 09/12/14 at 9:29 PM.
