Drink irresponsibly
An officer was dispatched to Smith Residence Hall on Oct. 31 regarding an intoxicated student who was found by a Peer Leader trying to enter the wrong residence hall room, unaware of which room was his. When the officer arrived, the student was found in the bathroom stall. The student was conscious and breathing, but he was slurring and mumbling words when asked questions by the police officer. The student was transported to Crawford Long Hospital and issued a code of conduct violation.
Worse than speeding
During a routine speeding stop on Tech Parkway the morning of Oct. 28, a background check on the license plate indicated a valid Fulton County warrant for a failure to appear in court. The driver was placed under arrest and transported to Fulton County Jail.
