Trespass

Non-student James Smith, who had already been given verbal warnings three separate times in the last month, was arrested by Officer Denae Murphy and Officer Baker at approximately 3:55 p.m. Smith has a history of assault within the Portland Police Department and was in possession of a serrated knife and a large screwdriver. He was cited for Criminal Trespass II.
Indecent Exposure
Lincoln Hall
Around 1:38 p.m. officers responded to reports of a male hiding inside of the third floor women’s restroom. When officers arrived on the scene, they found a registered sex offender, only identified as McNeil, masturbating under a coat. After clearing students from the bathroom, officers confronted McNeil who then opened his coat and exposed his erect penis to the officers. After violently resisting arrest, officers called a Code 3. They discovered he was on probation for a felony and his parole officer had reported him as a person of interest in a sexual assault that had occurred earlier in the day. He was arrested and charged with burglary and sexual abuse.

Officers twice responded to reports of marijuana. The reports were filed against the same room in both instances. First, officers responded alone and the students denied using or obtaining marijuana. The second, officers responded with two Resident Assistants who conducted a consented search by one of the students. Eventually, one of the students became cooperative and handed over a glass oil rig.
