A Tucson man escaped arrest Tuesday after he gave police a false name and may have been looking at Internet pornography, reports stated.

Police were walking near the computer terminals inside the Main Library, 1510 E. University Blvd., when they saw a man become visibly nervous, gather his belongings and leave one of the computers.

Officers watched the man walk to the back of the library and then circle around desks and booths. Police approached the man and noticed that he continued to behave nervously, reports stated.

He told officers his name but said he didn't have any identification. The man also told police he had to go to the bathroom badly. Police warned the man about trespassing on UA property.

They ran a background check and then told the man he could leave. The man exited the library without going into the bathroom.

Officers then went to the computer the man was using and looked at the history of the sites he had visited. Police realized that he was looking at pornography, reports stated.

Another officer stopped the man outside of the building when he saw the man jaywalking. He gave officers the same name and asked them if he could leave. Police told the man to sit on the street curb before finally releasing him.

Police learned later that the man gave police an alias. Officers are looking into filing charges against the man for suspicion of false reporting to an officer, reports stated.

There are no suspects or witnesses at this time, reports stated.

A Tucson man called police Tuesday evening from the library after someone left a message on his voicemail calling him a "motherfucker," reports stated.

The caller said, "I can't believe you called CPS, motherfucker," reports stated.

Police returned the call but were unable to speak with the caller because he was not at home. His roommate, who is the ex-girlfriend of the man with the cellular phone, told officers that she would tell the caller that he could be charged with harassment if the calls continued. The man who received the call told police that he did not want to press charges.

The man agreed to meet with the ex-girlfriend and give back her belongings, reports stated.
