Crime Beat
A student reported their bike wheels and tires stolen from the bike rack in front of Copeland on Mar. 30. It’s going to be really difficult to ride that bike now.
A student was arrested for DUI on Apr. 2. This person is most likely SOL and is a SOB for DUI.
A student reported on Apr. 3 that their laptop computer was stolen from the Gantenbein locker room. Remember: Facebooking and writing papers after a hard work out in the shower isn’t that fun. Leave your stuff at home.
An employee reported a television stolen from the Thayer Lounge in Templeton on Mar. 16. Better find a new spot to watch “Grey’s” this week.
A student reported on Mar. 17 the theft of her coat and vehicle keys from the Boley Law Library. It’s going to a cold walk home… (sorry)
