UP responds to drug and robbery complaints

According to an email from University Police (UP) spokesman, Lt. Chris Daniel, UP responded to a call reporting the smell of marijuana in Delta Hall Sunday night.


Once officers arrived they “made contact with housing staff who pointed out a quantity of marijuana.” After officers obtained a search warrant, a Beta Hall resident was arrested on charges of possession of cannabis and drug paraphernalia. The resident was released on a $2500 bond.
