A Dartmouth student called Hanover Police complaining that a club bouncer stole his driver's license while he was visiting Montreal. After losing his driver's license, the student claimed he was now receiving numerous calls from a pornography web site demanding payments for $1,500 that he allegedly owed to the site. Because no specific crime was committed in or near Hanover, the officer was able to advise the student of his options but Hanover Police will not begin an investigation.

Dartmouth Safety and Security called Hanover Police regarding an intoxicated Dartmouth freshman last Saturday. The officer found the 19-year-old male in the first-floor restroom of Byrne Hall sitting on a toilet with no shirt and his boxers around his ankles. There was vomit on the toilet seat and the student's clothes were piled on the floor next to him. When the ambulance arrived, officers dressed him and he managed to walk to the ambulance with their assistance. At this point, however, he refused transport in the ambulance and officers concluded that he was coherent enough to be taken to Dick's House. The student has a court date set for Dec. 15.

Dartmouth Safety and Security requested an ambulance for an intoxicated student. Officers found the Dartmouth sophomore in a residence on West St., incoherent and lying in his own vomit, according to Hanover Police. The student could not get up without assistance. Because the issue occurred off campus, there was confusion as to why Safety and Security called Dartmouth Emergency Medical Services five minutes before requesting ambulance assistance.

At that time, Hanover Police responded to a call from Safety and Security regarding two males located on Hanover Country Club property after midnight. When officers arrived, the subject acted very nervous and appeared to hide something in his vehicle. Police also noticed what looked like a cooler in the back of the subject's vehicle. Officers contacted Lebanon Police, who brought a canine to sniff the car for illegal drugs. Police found beer and marijuana in the car. The arrest was delayed because the subject is a resident of Rhode Island.
