Case #: 210448
Date: 2021 10 22
Time: 0502
Description: Damage to Property
Location: McKinley
Notes: CSOs were dispatched to assist a driver who reported that their vehicle had become stuck in the grass. Upon arrival, they CSOs observed a vehicle parked in the grass between the McKinley and Chittick dorms. It was also apparent that the driver had attempted to drive the vehicle out of the grass, digging the wheels in deeper. The driver requested the CSOs assist in pushing the vehicle out of the grass. After assessing the situation, the CSOs recommended a tow truck be called for assistance. At that time, the driver stated that they were in a hurry and needed to leave and continued to insist that the CSOs help to push the vehicle out of the grass. The driver began attempting to drive the vehicle out of the grass but the action just dug the vehicle in deeper. The CSOs requested the driver stop as they were concerned that if the driver were to get the vehicle unstuck the vehicle could possibly hit a student or a nearby residence hall, but the driver continued to spin their wheels at a high rate of speed. One of the CSOs requested the driver’s ID so that a tow truck could be called, but the driver responded that their license had been suspended. Due to the safety risks the driver was posing by continuing their efforts to drive out of the grass, and the driver’s admission that they did not have an active license, the CSOs requested Portland Police Bureau (PPB) response. PPB arrived shortly after and stated that the vehicle had been reported stolen. The driver was detained by PPB while the vehicle owner was contacted. The vehicle owner declined to press charges so the driver was released. Before PPB escorted the driver off of the property, the CSOs issued a verbal exclusion to the driver. A tow truck was contacted and safely removed the vehicle from the grass. 果酱视频 Grounds has been contacted for repairs to the grass.

A CSO took photos and completed a report, which the owner of the vehicle later requested.

Date: 2021 10 22
Time: 2049

They observed a group of students seated in the amphitheater bleachers and as they neared the students they observed smoke in the air, and one CSO noted it appeared that one of the students was holding a pipe. Before the CSOs were able to introduce themselves, one of the students stated that it was “only cigarettes.” The CSOs stated their observations and asked if any of the students had been smoking cannabis, to which they all replied in the negative. When a CSO asked the student who they believed they had seen holding a pipe if that was the case, the student stated that they were not in possession of a pipe. The CSOs gathered the students’ information and continued on their patrol.
