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. This is a complete report of incidents filed for Feb. 1-4.
Feb. 1
- Nonstudents Brandon R. King, 20 of Greenbrier and Blake A. Cummings, 22 of Maumelle were cited for smoking on campus and having alcohol on Saturday at 12:18 a.m. The officer stopped King and Cummings when he saw them smoking cigarettes in Oak Tree parking lots. The officer noticed they smelled of alcohol. King told the officer that he had a margarita. The officer then found out that King was under 21 and arrested him for being a minor in possession of alcohol. The officer gave them both a verbal warning.
- An off-duty UCAPD officer was threatened outside of Kum and Go at 1:05 a.m. The officer was in line, when he noticed Landon T. Willmuth, 22 of North Little Rock stealing cigarillos and a case of Powerade. The officer then stopped Willmuth from leaving the store. The officer was able to get Willmuth to return the stuff he stole and leave the store. Once the officer left the store, Willmuth and his friend Benjamin C. Dixon, 21 of Jacksonville were waiting for him. Willmuth then told the officer that he would “beat his ass.” When the officer identified himself as a cop, Willmuth said he didn’t care who he was, and he would kill him.
