Three UA students arrested at Maloney's Friday
Tucson police officers have targeted bars frequented by UA students during an increased number of checks for fake IDs during the past few weeks.
Three University of Arizona students were arrested at Maloney's, 213 N. Fourth Ave., during one raid Friday night in which officers entered the bar and began asking for identification of anyone who looked "underage," said Sgt. Marco Borboa, Tucson Police Department public information officer.
Two of the students that were arrested were females who had used another person's ID to get into the bar. The other, a male student, had a counterfeit ID.
There are normally between two and five officers conducting a bar check, Borboa said, and there has been an increase in such checks because TPD has hired enough officers to adequately crack down on the use of fake IDs.
