Campus Watch: Below is a summary of campus activity reported to or observed by The University Police Department Patrol Officers between Thursday, 04/09/15 and Friday, 04/10/15. EAST MALL, 201 East 22nd Street Theft: While walking to work, a UT staff member stopped at the East Mall to assist a student organization with setting up for a planned event on the East Mall. While assisting the student organization, the staff member left his black and grey duffle bag containing $100.00 in cash, a checkbook and an insurance card on a picnic table bench. When the staff member finished helping the student organization, he returned to the picnic table to discover his duffle bag had been stolen. Loss value: $110.00. Occurred on 04/09/15 between 9:00 AM and 9:30 AM. JESTER EAST, 201 East 21st Street Possession of Marijuana: UT Police Officers were summoned to a 10th floor dormitory room to investigate a report of the odor of burning marijuana. Upon asking the resident where she was “ashing,” the student retrieved a red cup containing the contents of a cigar and a partially burned hand rolled cigarette containing .003 ounces of marijuana. Occurred on 04/09/15 at 10:22 PM. PARKING LOT 103, 2000 Comal Driving While Intoxicated / Possession of Drug Paraphernalia / Possession of Dangerous Drug: A UT Patrol Officer observed a white Chevrolet pick-up truck skewed in a parking space in the parking lot. The officer discovered the truck was running and occupied by a driver who was asleep at the wheel. Upon closer inspection, the officer observed a glass pipe with burned methamphetamine residue in the bowl. While standing by the vehicle, the subject roused suddenly and “jammed the accelerator.” Fortunately, the vehicle was in park so it didn’t go anywhere. When the officer asked the subject for his driver’s license, the subject pulled a twenty dollar bill out of his wallet and handed it to the officer. At one point during the field sobriety test, the subject put his hands behind his back and stated he was “used to being arrested.” The officer felt the same as the subject was found to be under the influence of an intoxicating substance to the point he was deemed to have been driving while intoxicated. Officers found a plastic bag containing .95 grams of methamphetamine inside the vehicle. Believe it or not, that was not the most interesting thing found in the vehicle – well, in the subject anyway. The subject was found to have a tooth lodged in one of his fingers, which the subject claimed was from a physical altercation he had the previous week. Austin-Travis County EMS transported the subject to a local hospital for a tooth extraction of sorts. Occurred on 04/10/15 at 3:37 AM. The University of Texas Police Department responded to 16 Alarm Reports, 5 Suspicious Activity Reports, 1 Accidental Damage Report and 2 Unsecured Door Reports between 04/09/15 and 04/10/15.
