Dumb Criminals

Well, these aren't all criminals, but some are. Taken from the Queen's University security alert website.

March 14, 10:42 pm: PhysEd Centre - A caller reported he just witnessed three males kick in an entire main door window and then run off - the group was described as appearing to be intoxicated and at least one was wearing a Queen's jacket. The Security Supervisor responded to the report from West Campus and noted a similar group on Johnson Street - where one of them appeared to be beating up an arm chair and yelling obscenities at it - but the original witness could not be located to confirm it was the same group responsible for the vandalism. A tradesman was called in to make repairs and completed his work by midnight.

March 14: 12:05 pm: Clark Hall - Pub staff informed the ERC that a patron just claimed to witness someone stealing a keg from inside the pub. The Security Supervisor searched Campus but there was no sign of suspects or keg.

March 16, 12:20 pm: Student Housing Area - An AMS Walkhome Team reported they discovered an intoxicated person passed out at the corner of University Ave and Earl Street, then a group of the people came along, picked him up and carried him away. No description of the group or where they were headed was indicated.

March 18, 1:45 am: Victoria Hall - Security Supervisors, while on mobile patrol of Campus, noticed two students carrying a couch out of the Residence. When questioned, the two claimed they were actually walking in the opposite direction and in fact had been trying to return the couch to the building. However they soon realized they'd been caught and were cooperative in returning the couch to its original location.

March 27, 3:38 am: Leonard Hall - A caller report some individuals yelling and making noise outside the Residence. The Security Supervisor attended and spoke to some males who claimed someone had lobbed a muffin at them from an upper floor window, but agreed to keep the noise down.

March 28, 7:16 pm: Victoria Hall - A student contacted Security to report there was an unknown male passed out in his bed. The student reported he'd left the room unlocked for a few minutes to run downstairs, and when he returned the door was locked. The desk clerk provided access to the room and then they saw there was another person in the bed. The Security Supervisors attended, managed to wake the individual and convince him to get dressed. It turned out this other student actually lived on another floor in the Residence and had pressed the wrong button on the elevator. He then walked into the unlocked room thinking it was his own..
