Lost Property An officer took a phone report of a lost wallet. The officer provided the complainant with a case number and information regarding resources for replacement documents.
Motorist Assist Officers responded to a report of an abandoned vehicle blocking traffic on South Campus Drive. Upon contact, they spoke with the auto shop, who confirmed awareness of the vehicle and assured them they would dispatch a wrecker promptly. With assistance from officers and students, the vehicle was safely moved off the roadway. The auto shop arrived shortly after, and officers coordinated traffic direction while the wrecker loaded the vehicle. The vehicle was then towed back to the auto shop for further handling.
Welfare Check Officers responded to Heritage Halls for a welfare check on a student. They successfully located the individual and collaborated with campus resources, including CAPS, to assess the situation. After thorough evaluation, it was determined that the student required additional professional assistance at a hospital.
Accident – Hit & Run An officer responded to Lot 26 to take a report of a hit-and-run incident. Upon arrival, the officer observed a Honda sedan with damage to its driver's side rear end, which was documented with photographs. Review of nearby camera footage revealed that at 1555 hours, a black Ford F-150 entered the lot and attempted to park beside the Honda. During this maneuver, the Ford F-150 struck the Honda on the driver's rear side with significant force, causing the Honda to move on camera. The officer later located the other driver and issued a citation for leaving the scene of an accident.
911 Hang-up An officer was dispatched to Wyview Park apartment complex in response to an abandoned 911 hang-up call. Upon arriving and conducting a thorough patrol of the area, the officer was unable to locate any signs of distress or disturbance.
Fire – Gas Smell An officer responded with Provo Fire to a report of a gas smell in an apartment at Wymount Terrace. Upon arrival, the complainant reported a strong natural gas odor around his water heater, noting maintenance workers have responded three times since August 7 without resolution. The fire captain detected a carbon monoxide level near 30 parts per million, considered low but concerning due to the presence of a baby in the residence. Housing maintenance on-call and Enbridge Gas were contacted to investigate and address the issue. The fire department said it was safe to be in the apartment since the windows to the room were open.
