SATURDAY, Nov. 22 — Officers on patrol noticed vehicle tracks on the ground leading up to the gate of the connector road in the area of Mountainview College, according to Investigator Dennis P. Bush of Binghamton’s New York State University Police. The officers noticed that the right gate arm had been removed and thrown to the side. They then followed the vehicle tracks down the road toward East Access Road, where they noticed the vehicle must have jumped the curb over the orange fencing and then proceeded on East Access Road.

The officers believed that the car jumped the curb again through the chain link fence on the east access gate, displacing the poles and warping it. The officers were unable to find the vehicle in question or its operator. The value of the damage is unknown.

SUNDAY, Nov. 23, 4:01 a.m. — Officers responded to a call from Newing Service Drive about a cab fare dispute, Bush said. The 39-year-old male taxi driver of the Master Taxi Service told the officers that a male and female student had run into Newing College’s Chenango Hall without paying. The two students had knocked on the door and been let inside by a resident of the hall. The driver was unable to give the officers a more detailed description other than that they both had brown hair. The officers told the driver there was little they could do with the information they had.

MONDAY, Nov. 24 — A 19-year-old student called University police when a $5 bill was stolen from his room, Bush said. The student had received the bill as change when he ordered a pizza and he placed it under a Febreze bottle while he ate. The student told officers that friends had been in his room, but that they had not taken it. The student told officers that another student had come into the room looking for change for a $20 bill. Officers have no suspects.

MONDAY, Nov. 24, 11:35 p.m. — A resident assistant of Mountainview College’s Windham Hall called University police with a complaint of students smoking in their room. The RA and resident director had spoken to the residents of the room previously, and officers were told that it had been an ongoing problem all year. The officers located the room by smell and spoke to two of the residents, who denied smoking in the room. The officers opened the bathroom door of the suite and found the room full of cigarette smoke. The residents were warned that smoking cigarettes in a residential room was a violation of the Clean Indoor Air Act and that members of the suite could be kicked out for repeated breaches of the Act.
