The following information was taken from incident reports filed by officers at UCAPD. The reports are made available by university police after they are approved by a supervisor. That process takes a few days, which delays our report.

- Nonresident Darius Mccray 19, reported a harassment report to the UCAPD. Mccray, an Aramark employee, told officers four men accused him and his friend of stealing a bag of marijuana at a house party in Maumelle. Mccray has been receiving text messages from unknown numbers stating they want the marijuana back or one hundred dollars. According to the texts, the senders know Mccray works at UCA, where his aunt lives and that the people who took the marijuana would get what’s coming to them. A number called the Aramark office asking if Mccray was at work that day and what time he got off. UCAPD was not able to get a response from the caller.

UCAPD noticed smoke emanating from Wright’s vehicle and stopped to offer assistance. Officers noticed Wright’s response to them was unintelligible and that his speech was extremely slurred. At the time, officers were not able to smell any intoxicants and had to show Wright how to pop the hood of his vehicle. A portable breath test was administered, giving a result of 0.282. Wright was placed under arrest and his vehicle was towed.

- Nonresident David Perry 24, was pulled over for running a stop sign and loud noise. UCAPD asked Perry for his name and birthday, which he replied with “Terry Perry”. When officers ran Perry’s information, nothing came up and suspected him of lying. UCAPD obtained Perry’s real information and placed him under arrest for obstructing governmental operations. It was discovered he had a felony and two misdemeanor warrants out of Missouri. Officers advised Perry of his warrants and that Missouri was coming to get him. Perry became upset when officers advised him that his brother’s vehicle would be towed. “Fuck you, shut the door,” Perry told the officers. As UCAPD tried to shut the door, Perry pointed his toe forward, bouncing the door back. When the door was shut, Perry kicked the door and officers places a leg cuff on him. He was put on a no bond hold for Missouri.
