Spath agreed to field sobriety tests, but refused to take the intoxilyzer exam. During the sobriety tests, Spath admitted to drinking a pitcher of Miller Lite before driving home.

A student's blue Volvo was vandalized intentionally on Monday night while it was parked at the Corleone Apartments.

The car was parked by the owner's boyfriend at 1330 N. Park Ave. around 7:30 p.m.

When he returned to the car two hours later, the car had straight and circular scratches on the hood and sides. The car also had the word "bitch" scratched into the roof.

Both the owner and her boyfriend think the vandalism may be related to an incident in which UAPD officers found marijuana in the boyfriend's apartment.
