A 22-year-old student was arrested and charged with criminal nuisance Monday after a dispute over the ownership of a bicycle at the Student Recreation Center.
Police arrested Neal Markowitz, of the 1400 block of East Mabel, when a student claimed the bicycle he was riding was stolen from her in May
The student did not have a serial number for the bicycle but said she could identify it because she had the handlebars shortened for a better fit. Markowitz said he had borrowed the bicycle from his roommate.
A routine check of Markowitz revealed a warrant for his arrest for criminal nuisance.
He was taken to UAPD for processing.
