Missing person?: On Jan. 15, a parent of a female student contacted OUPD, fearing that her daughter was missing. The dispatcher notified the head resident on duty, who used his key to enter her dormitory. Nobody was in, and there was no sign of forced entry. The mother met with OUPD two days later and said she had not talked to her daughter in three days. The mother claimed she and her daughter talked daily, and that the break in communication was unusual behavior for her. The mother said she left several voice messages on her daughter’s phone, none of which were returned. On Jan. 19, the mother called OUPD informing them that her daughter was on campus and safe.

Marijuana possession: On Feb. 2, OUPD was dispatched to 212 Van Wagoner Hall. A female resident said she had smoked marijuana in her room recently, and turned over 1/16 of an ounce of marijuana, two pipes, a bong, a marijuana grinder, a joint and some alcohol. She was given a citation for marijuana use.

Going 42 in a 15: On March 14, OUPD pulled over a vehicle traveling 42 mph by Vanderberg Hall, where the speed limit is 15 mph. The driver told OUPD he wasn’t sure if his license was valid. The officer conducted a background check, and discovered that the driver had two prior convictions for Driving while License Suspended and two warrants in Canton. The driver was arrested and transported to Canton Police Department.

Domestic violence: On March 24, a student reported a possible domestic violence incident. The student said she had been pushed by a male student. The student said she had followed the male from Varner Hall to Hamlin Hall in order to discuss a disagreement they had earlier. She reported the male refused to talk about the matter. When the two arrived on the third floor of Hamlin, where the male lives, she obstructed his doorway, and he pushed her out of the way. She said after he pushed her out of the way, he grabbed her wrists and pressed her against a wall. She claimed to have a bruise above her right elbow. In a later interview, the male said that he had simply pushed her out of the way and entered the room, closing the door. The male student agreed not to have any more contact with the female student. No charges were filed.

Burnt popcorn: On Sept. 19, OUPD responded to a smoke alarm in a South Hamlin Hall room. A resident said she burned popcorn in her microwave. Auburn Hills Fire Department came and reported that there was no damage.

Urinating outdoors: On Oct. 6, an OUPD dispatcher reported witnessing on security camera a male urinating near the dome use as an indoor soccer facility.

Stolen vehicle: On Oct. 27 around 1:10 a.m., a student reported her dark blue 2008 Toyota Corolla S, which was parked in P-5, had been stolen. The student said her car was parked in the lot since Oct. 25. She said she went to her car at one point on Oct. 26, and may have dropped her keys, but didn’t realize the keys were missing until she discovered her car missing as well. The student drove around campus with a friend and still could not find the vehicle. Officers were unable to find the vehicle. Security cameras were not focused on the area where the vehicle was located at the time of theft, and there was no sign of breaking and entering. There were no suspects at the time of the police report.

The driver, who didn’t have his license, was given sobriety tests, refused a PBT and was placed under arrest for suspicion of OWI. He was taken to Pontiac Osteopathic Hospital Medical Center for the blood draw and then transported to Oakland County Jail.
