A UA employee called police Saturday after he found evidence of what he believed to be an attempted break-in of a lab in the Harshbarger/Mines building, 1133 E. North Campus Drive, reports stated.

The employee noticed that several tiles on a bathroom ceiling had been removed or disturbed. The bathroom lies adjacent to a lab, reports stated.

A shoeprint was discovered on a urinal in the bathroom, which led the employee to believe that someone was trying to gain entrance to the lab via the ceiling, reports stated.

The room contains over $1 million in equipment, reports stated.

Any attempt to gain access to the lab was unsuccessful due to a block wall that divides the two rooms and runs past the ceiling of the bathroom, reports stated.

No equipment was taken from the lab, reports stated.

Police have no suspects or witnesses.
