June 9, South Main Street, 1:24 a.m.
Police observed a white 1989 Pontiac with several construction signs hanging out of the trunk. Due to a recent rash of construction sign thefts on campus, officers stopped the vehicle and soon ascertained that the driver was intoxicated. Because the 33-year-old driver was driving without a license, police struggled to identify the man, who initially claimed to be his own brother. Police later discovered that the man had no license because it was revoked after an earlier citation for driving while intoxicated. The man was arrested for a second DWI, driving after revocation or suspension and giving a false report to law enforcement.

Officers responded to a report of a possible burglary in progress at a local apartment. The 22-year-old female caller was house-sitting at the apartment while its owner was out of town. The woman had left earlier that morning to go jogging only to return and observe through a window that someone else was walking around inside the apartment. The woman then called the police, who quickly determined that she was observing an adjacent apartment rather than the one she was supposed to be house-sitting.
