Law & Order: GWU

Up first, University Police was called to Thurston Hall to assist with an administrative search in progress. A community director carried out the search in a room with 6 male occupants. It yielded 11 point 5 grams of marijuana. The case was then referred to Student Judicial Services.

Next up, a report of simple assault on public property: a female student alleged that she may or may not have been purposely tripped by another student.  The complainant was walking with a group of people when she tripped over the foot of an individual passing by in another group. She sought treatment for a bruised knee.

Another case of simple assault, this time off campus: a female, not affiliated with the school, filed a complaint against a male student from GW with who she was in a previous relationship.  She claims that the subject pushed one of her friends while trying to talk to her at a club, when she would have nothing to do with him. She also believes that the subject slashed the tires of her car at her residence in Virginia.

Another female complainant, this one affiliated with GW, states that she was verbally harassed while at Mount Vernon. She suspected that the subject was an employee of the Mount Vernon Campus.

Finally, an altercation occurred at a townhouse on F Street. The complainant is a male not affiliated with the school, who claims he was punched in the eye by a male GW student. The complainant allegedly bumped into the subject at a party, and was thereafter whaled on. The GW student reportedly had been drinking, but needed no further medical attention. The complainant has not filed criminal charges, and the situation has been turned over to SJS.
