Police do not know who exposed his erect penis to a male UA student Monday while inside a campus bathroom, reports stated.

The student told police he was inside a stall at 10:30 a.m. at the UA Main Library, 1510 E. University Blvd., when another man entered the stall next to him. The unknown man bent down and stuck his penis underneath the divider, reports stated.

"What are you doing?" the student said before the man exited the stall and left the bathroom, reports stated.

The student does not know who the man was, but he told police that he saw a 6-foot tall man with a gray and black backpack inside the bathroom before he entered the stall, reports stated.


Police arrested a UA student Tuesday after his resident assistant smelled burnt marijuana coming through the vents of the residence hall, reports stated.

The RA for Palm Shadows Apartments, 1815 E. Speedway Blvd., was in her kitchen when she smelled the odor. She traced the smell back to the room of a 20-year-old resident, reports stated.

When officers approached the room, they could smell the odor coming through an exterior vent. The RA told police the student was home, but he refused to open the door and speak with the officers, reports stated.

Dag, the UAPD police dog, smelled the exterior of the room and confirmed the officers' observations that there was an odor coming from the vent, reports stated.

Police then spoke with the hall director, who allowed them to enter the room with an extra key. When officers and the RA opened the door, they saw the resident standing a few feet away and noticed the odor of burnt marijuana, reports stated.

The resident denied having any marijuana contraband in the room, but later told police that he hid his water bong in his dirty laundry bag, reports stated.

Officers searched the bag and found the bong and a pill container that had a few flakes of marijuana in it, reports stated.

The student told police that he bought the bong in a town near Las Vegas. The student was cited and released on suspicion of possession of drug paraphernalia, reports stated.

The bong and pill container were taken to UAPD and placed into evidence.


A student believes he was the victim of a pickpocket Jan. 13 while at a campus fraternity, reports stated.

When he went home early the next morning, his $199 phone was missing, reports stated.

There are no suspects and no witnesses.


A UA custodian found a bullet Monday morning inside a campus garage, reports stated.

The custodian found the .40 caliber unused round atop a trashcan on the fifth floor of the Tyndall Garage, 880 E. Fourth St., reports stated.

Police inspected the bullet and the area where it was found. There were no markings on the bullet that would indicate that somebody tried to fire it, and officers did not find any other ammunition in the garage, reports stated.

Police do not know to whom the bullet belongs or who was responsible for leaving it inside the garage, reports stated.

The bullet was taken to UAPD and placed into evidence, reports stated.


A man driving a van was engaged in suspicious activity Monday on campus, reports stated.

A UA student's father dropped his daughter off at Old Main, 1200 E. University Blvd., when he saw the man exit a van and approach his daughter. The man asked for directions to North Campbell Avenue before getting into his van and driving away, reports stated.

The father left the area and returned five minutes later to see the man had reparked at Old Main and was approaching students and asking them for directions, reports stated.

Police searched the area but could not find a vehicle that matched the van's description, reports stated.
