Harrasing phone calls

A student received a harassing phone call Tuesday night, reports stated.

The student told police she was in her residence hall room when the phone rang at about 9:30 p.m. The caller said hello, but then paused before saying anything else.

The student asked if the caller, who had a male voice, wanted to speak with her roommate.

"No, not necessarily," the caller replied, reports stated.

The caller then asked if the student could help him.

The student asked what he needed help with, and the caller responded, "Can you help me finish masturbating?" reports stated.

The student immediately hung up the phone. She was unable to trace the call, reports stated.

She told police she doesn't know who the caller was and doesn't want to press charges if the person is caught, reports stated.

The student said the caller had no discernible accent or speech pattern. She requested that the incident be documented.

There are no suspects, reports stated.

As officers approached the room they noticed the scent getting stronger. Police knocked on the door, and as it opened they noticed the odor got even stronger, reports stated.

Police spoke with a man inside and two residents who were lying in their beds under the covers, reports stated.

"Yeah. I did about 30 minutes ago," a resident said after officers asked who had been smoking marijuana, reports stated.

While speaking with the resident they noticed he had glassy eyes and raised, green taste buds, reports stated.

He gave officers a glass smoking pipe and a baggie that contained approximately 1.2 grams of a substance believed to be marijuana, reports stated.

He told officers that he had been the only one smoking marijuana.

He was cited and released on suspicion of unlawful possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia, reports stated.

The marijuana and the pipe were confiscated and will be sent to the Arizona Department of Public Safety for testing, reports stated.
