Officers responded to a call from McMahon Hall after an RA smelled marijuana coming from one of the clusters during nightly rounds. Police heard shuffling and a drawer close after they knocked on the door and detected the distinct odor of marijuana. Upon entering the room, officers confiscated a multicolored glass-pipe containing a burnt substance. Prior contact had been made with the cluster regarding marijuana and a warning was issued.

Staff at the UW Medical Center ER asked an individual to leave after she threw a plastic bottle across the room. The suspect proceeded to flail her arms, striking the staff member across the right side of her face with an open hand. The suspect told police that she was in extreme pain and had been waiting in the ER for four days. She requested to be transported to another medical facility and was taken to the UW Police Department for processing. The woman was arrested and booked into King County Jail for assault in the fourth degree.

Officers responded to Johnson Hall and contacted a man and a woman outside the building. After being asked for identification, the woman complied, and the male suspect fled into the building. Backup officers arrived, and after a short foot-chase, the suspect was apprehended. The female had a misdemeanor warrant for theft, and the man had a felony escape warrant and was active with the Department of Corrections.
