POLICE FILES Vandenberg employee reports assault and battery
An OUPD officers responded to call reporting an assault on a housing employee in West Vandenberg at about 3:45 a.m. on March 26. The employee said she had encountered a drunk student rummaging through a trash can in a trash room. She requested his ID and he gave it to her. When she did not give it back, the student became aggressive, grabbing her shoulders and grabbing at her hand for the ID. He shortly gave up and left his ID and the building. The employee does not want to prosecute the student, but stated that she felt uncomfortable with him being in the same building as her.

“Last year, me and my friend covered my other friend’s car in colorful post-its. She wasn’t mad, she was kind of expecting it and it was funny.”

“A few years ago, I rubberbanded the sink hose and my dad tried to turn the water on and it sprayed all over him. He was kind of mad because it was 6:30 in the morning when he turned it on.”
On March 27 around 7 p.m., OUPD officers were dispatched to Hamlin Hall to investigate a complaint of marijuana odor. After knocking on the door they believed the smell was coming from, the officers were greeted by a student with bloodshot and red, watery eyes. The student and his friend both admitted to having been smoking marijuana. The officers asked if there was any in the room and they replied that there was. In the room, the officers discovered the leftovers of two hand-rolled joints, a marijuana grinder and more marijuana in a duffle bag. Citations were issued to both students for marijuana use. All evidence was collected by the officers.
Students caught tampering with fire suppression system
A fire systems inspector informed the OUPD that someone had been tampering with the fire suppression system in the Engineering Center March 24. After viewing surveillance video, OUPD officers located and confronted the suspects. They admitted what they had done but stated that they had no idea the know they had turned was a part of the fire suppression system. Since there was no damage and no intent to sabotage the system, the students were not criminally charged. — Compiled by Megan Carson, Copy Editor

“Every year, my friends and I do the same prank on the same friend. We tape the entrance door with newspapers and then when she finally opens the door, crumpled newspapers fall on her. She finds it funny though.”
“The fake sneeze prank when you spray someone with water when they’re not looking and make a sneezing sound.”
