Police caught up with one of the students after he jumped a wire fence. The student told police he had been drinking and had beer with him. The student said he had run because he didn't want to get in trouble.

Police asked the student why he had a cut on his right hand between his thumb and index finger and the student said it was from jumping the fence.

The student told police he had been drinking, had beer on him, and had a fake ID, reports stated.

When police asked for the fake ID, the student told them he dropped his wallet while he was running.

Police found the wallet and took the fake ID. The student was very drunk and became apologetic, reports stated.
