Our next CPA is rapidly approaching. If you are interested in attending The University of Texas at Austin Police Department's Citizen's Police Academy, please see the attached documents. CLAUDIA TAYLOR JOHNSON, 210 West 6th Street Public Intoxication: A non-UT subject was reported as struggling to remain perpendicular to the earth's surface. The subject was found to be unable to maintain her balance without assistance. When attempting to contact someone to take care, custody and control of her, the subject stated she wanted to try her mother who lives in Canada. Realizing the mother would not make it to Austin, Texas before the subject sobered-up, the officers felt it best to just take her into custody as she was under the influence of an alcoholic beverage to the point she was a physical danger to herself. Occurred on 09/24/15 at 2:31 AM. ERNEST COCKRELL Jr. HALL, 301 East Dean Keeton Theft: A brown Fossil wallet containing a debit card, a credit card, various forms of identification and $27.00 in cash was stolen when it was left on a table inside a 1st floor room during a meeting with approximately 100 people in attendance. Loss value: $50.00. Occurred on 09/23/15 between 8:15 PM and 8:45 PM. 500 East 23rd Street Failure to Yield Right of Way to Pedestrian / Driving While License Invalid / Assist Outside Agency: While crossing the street mid-block, a UT student was struck by a vehicle that was traveling eastbound on the north side of the North End Zone. The non-UT driver did not see the student as he was driving towards the rising sun. The student sustained injuries to her right leg. The driver was found to have been driving while his license was invalid. That driver was also found to have two outstanding outside agency arrest warrants for two prior driving while license invalid violations. Austin-Travis County EMS transported the student to a local hospital for treatment of injuries to her right leg. Occurred on 09/23/15 at 7:58 AM. Safety Tip: While it was clear the driver should not have been driving due to his invalid driver's license, I would like to point out a very important safety tip for pedestrians. Never assume the driver of a moving vehicle can or has seen you. For your own safety, make sure the driver of a vehicle is yielding to you before you step in-front of their moving vehicle. The University of Texas Police Department responded to 27 Alarm Reports, 6 Traffic Violations, 2 Motor Vehicle Collisions, 10 Suspicious Activity Reports, 2 Welfare Concern Reports, 1 Accidental Damage Report, 3 Unsecured Door Reports and 6 Public Assist Requests between 09/23/15 and 09/24/15.
