Juvenile Problem
An FSY staff member called to report three juveniles who were harassing other FSY staff members by pretending they were FSY students and then running away in an attempt to get the counselors to chase them. This was the second day these particular juveniles played this game. The officer recommended that the staff stop chasing them and the problem would likely resolve itself.

Medical
An officer and the Provo Fire Department responded to the Harman building on a medical call. It was reported that an FSY participant had suddenly passed out. When the first responders arrived, the patient was sitting in a chair and seemed to be feeling better.

Medical
An officer and Provo Paramedics were dispatched to Heritage Halls for the report of a juvenile with a forehead laceration. The paramedics evaluated the patient and spoke to their mother. The patient’s sister responded to the scene to take them to an Insta-Care for stitches.

Missing Person
An FSY participant was reported missing from their group after lunch. Officers talked with the counselor and made sure the individual’s dorm had been checked, which it had. Officers tried calling and texting the youth but got no response, so they called the missing teen’s parents and asked if they would call or text their child to see if they could get a response. The counselor later called after finding the FSY participant in their dorm room. The parents were contacted and updated on the situation.

Suspicious
A citizen called dispatch after reportedly witnessing an individual try to open their car door in lot 19 and then proceed to check other vehicles’ doors nearby. Police responded and contacted both the suspect and the complainant. Police found during the interviews that the complainant did not actually report anything about their own door being tested. The suspect said they were trying to open their own driver's side door, but it was stuck so they entered their vehicle on the passenger’s side. After records check of the vehicle’s registration, it was found that the vehicle was, in fact, registered to the suspect.
