OUPD Crime Report April 3-5

Among the items of interest in the April 3-5 weekend edition of the University of Oklahoma police report:

Only a handful of issues at or near the Medieval Fair over the weekend, but they all seemed to come in like a two-hour period on Saturday:

• 2:58 p.m. > Fender bender in the Lloyd Noble Center parking lot


• 3:28 p.m. > PUblic intox at the LNC


• 3:33 p.m. > Public intox at the LNC

Aside from that excitement, it appears to have been a quiet weekend on the fair front.

Perhaps that's because OU students were studying, er, partying in their dorms. OUPD officers were called just after 2 a.m. Friday to Couch Center, 10th floor West, to deal with a "drug violation."

A report was made, but the OUPD log does not indicate any arrests.

Speaking of partying, a fight was reported at Boyd Street and Jenkins Avenue just after 2 a.m. Sunday.

No reports of injuries, YouTube videos or Twitter pics.

OUPD Crime Report April 2

Among the items of interest in the March 31 edition of the University of Oklahoma police report:

It appears that three people were arrested because of a fight at O'Connell's Irish Pub early Thursday. At least that's my guess as to what three entries in the OU police report for the same incident would indicate.

The fight happened after 1:30 a.m. Thursday. There is no word as to the cause of the fight or any injuries sustained.

A hit-and-run collision was reported along the Parrington Oval sometime between 10:15 and 10:30 a.m. Thursday.

No word on what was hit or who was running.
