A male student reported he was rousted Thursday morning by a harassing phone call from a man offering sexual favors.

The student told university police that the man called the residence hall room about 6:50 a.m. and asked, "What's up, are you sleeping ?"

The man said he was Kevin from across the hall, however, according to police reports, there is no Kevin living across the hall.

The student told police the man went on to say, "Is your dick hanging out? I want to come over and suck you off."

The student hung up.

University police arrested two men on drug and alcohol charges Saturday after making a traffic stop at East Speedway Boulevard and North Park Avenue.

According to police reports, an officer was talking to one of the men, Michael Whimper, 19, of the 400 block of East Yavapai Road, when he smelled what he thought was marijuana on his clothes.
