Police Beat • 08/09/2024

Traffic Offense
Security officers observed a white Toyota Tacoma doing "donuts" in the parking lot. There was a 45 minute time lapse, and by the time it was reported, security had found the vehicle and watched the occupants enter a dorm nearby. The officer attempted phone contact with the vehicles owner; however, there was no answer. The officer left a text message and a BYU business card on the truck advising the owner she needed to contact the officer about this incident.

Welfare Check
An officer received a call regarding a welfare check on a juvenile attending FSY. The complainant advised that his daughter had received a message via Snap Chat stating, "I’ve got your brother” who is also attending FSY. The complainant was unable to make contact with his son. The officer made contact with an FSY counselor and was able to locate the young man who then called his parents. It was determined that the message was a prank and would be dealt with by the complainant.

Property Damage
On 08/08/24, an Officer was dispatched to Lot #27 on a report of property damage. The Officer made contact with the complainant who said his driver’s side window was broken. The Officer was able to watch the video surveillance of the incident and there was no one in the area of the vehicle when the window broke. It is unclear what caused it to break possibly the heat.

Sex Offense
BYU Police were dispatched to a delayed sex offense that occurred on the BYU campus. The victim reported she had been inappropriately touched and had been receiving unwanted sexual advances. Both the victim and the suspect are juvenile females who are attending FSY on campus. An officer gathered details on the incident and forwarded this case to the investigations division.
