Traffic Offense An officer was called to a report of a reckless driver doing donuts in parking Lot 19 near the Broadcast Building. The officer was able to stop the car in front of Heritage Halls. The officer identified the driver who denied doing donuts in the parking lot. The officer gathered the driver’s information and released them with a warning.
Sex Offense An officer took a report of a delayed sex offense that occurred about one year prior. The officer set up a time for the victim to meet with a detective, and the Police Victim Advocate.
Traffic Stop An officer observed a vehicle parked at the Y-Trailhead and saw a male and a female get out of the vehicle to switch places so that the female was driving. The officer checked the vehicle in the state system and learned that the male had a suspended license with a Driver’s License Division sanction to impound any vehicle the subject was driving. The female also had a learner's permit. The officer stopped the vehicle, wrote the male a citation for a suspended driver's license for a qualifying offense, and warned the female for a learner's permit violation. The officer impounded the vehicle. One of the individual’s parents picked them up at the location. This case will be referred to the Provo City Attorney's Office for review of charges.
DUI An officer observed a vehicle exit the Y-Trailhead that had left two cans of alcohol where it was parked. The vehicle failed to signal while turning from Y-Mountain Trailhead Rd onto Terrace Dr. The officer activated the patrol vehicle's emergency lights, but the vehicle did not stop for several blocks. The officer approached the vehicle and saw that one individual occupied it. The officer immediately observed an open container of alcohol in the passenger compartment and smelled the odor of alcohol on the person’s breath. The individual had never obtained a driver's license in Utah. They performed field sobriety tests which indicated that they were too impaired to drive. The officer placed them under arrest and impounded the vehicle. This case will be referred to the Provo City Attorney's Office for review of charges.
Suspicious Police officers responded to the Harmon Building when a concerned citizen reported that an individual was asking people in the building for a phone and a ride home.

Lost Property The Dispatch Center assigned an officer to call a student about their Apple AirPods that were accidentally left at the Life Science Building (LSB). The student returned to where they were left but the AirPods were not there. They provided the officer with the date, time, and specific location of the incident along with a description of the lost item. The Dispatch Center reviewed surveillance footage and observed a college-aged individual pick up the left AirPods and leave the building. The complainant said they went to the BYU Lost and Found in the basement of the Wilkinson Center, but the AirPods were not there. At this time, the identity of the student who took them is unknown.
