Law & Order: Week of Sept. 6

WRGW's very own Law & Order returns with GW's weekly Crime Log for Sept. 6:

GW Police responded to a report of a theft from one of the GW campus's parking garages. A female student parked her car in one the garages located on campus, and returned a short while later to find her driver's side rear window shattered, and her laptop and books stolen. The case is still open for investigation.

In other thefts, a male student reported his cellphone missing after leaving it unattended on a table in the Marvin Center. Additionally, a female student reported her room key stolen after leaving it unattended in a study lounge on the Mount Vernon campus. A word to the wise: if you leave your personal belongings unattended, they are likely to be stolen.

A former GW student reported to GW Police a sexual assault in the residential area of Ivory Tower. The woman stated that she was assaulted by an acquaintance. The case has been closed, and referred to Metropolitan Police.

An assault occurred on Monday at the corner of 19th and F Streets NW. GW Police was originally called to the scene of a traffic accident. Upon arriving, they found that a witness to the accident had been assaulted by a passenger from one of the vehicles. The witness decided not to press charges.

Just this morning, a woman unaffiliated with GW filed a complaint of indecent exposure at the intersection of 19th and E Streets NW. The woman stated that a male approached her parked car and exposed himself to her, before fleeing.

Finally, GW Police charged a man with disorderly conduct after he was discovered urinating behind Corcoran Hall in University Yard. The subject, who fled when confronted by GW Police, was apprehended. Metropolitan Police also responded, and the subject was barred from the GWU campus.
