Crime Log

Liquor Law Violation

10/10 – Thurston Hall – 1:10 a.m. – case closed
Front desk officers called for more backup and EMeRG. when a male student was carried through the front door. A student informed University Police that the male had consumed alcohol for the first time and was having difficulty speaking and standing. As EMeRG. evaluated his condition, the male became disorderly. UPD handcuffed and transported him to the GW Hospital Emergency Room, and on the ride over the subject continued to act aggressively. Upon arrival, the subject was verbally aggressive to hospital staff and was placed in a holding room. The subject finally became complacent when doctors arrived.
Referred to Student Judicial Services
