Police chased three students early Friday morning who were pushing a $1,600 60-inch television toward the Phi Gamma Delta fraternity house, 1801 E. First St., reports stated.

An officer followed the men down an ally from the Delta Chi fraternity house, 1701 E. First St., to the "Fiji" house.

Once the students arrived at the Fiji house, the officer yelled, "Stop, police," several times, but the students did not respond.

The officer chased one of the students and knocked him to the ground. The police officer fell on an empty 40-ounce bottle of Budweiser, cutting his left hand, but held the student with his right hand, reports stated.

The student was taken to UAPD headquarters, 1852 E. First St., where he said he had started drinking beer with other Fiji pledge brothers earlier in the night at Coronado Residence Hall, 822 E. Fifth St. He then went to another pledge brother's house and drank some more, reports stated.

He said he remembered getting in a car, being taken back to campus and getting arrested by police. He said he didn't know the other two men he was with or anything about a television being taken from Delta Chi.

When asked why the student ran from police, he said he ran because there was a car coming. He said he didn't know it was a police car, and he didn't hear the officer shouting at him, reports stated.

Police found a fake ID on the student, and the student admitted to using it to buy alcohol earlier in the night, reports stated.

The student was arrested for minor in possession, possession of a fictitious license and misrepresentation of age to purchase liquor, reports stated.

Delta Chi did not want to press charges, reports stated.

The student was cited and released.
