Trespassing An employee at the heating plant reported observing two males climbing over the wall into the cooling tower area and onto the roof of the facility. BYU police officers responded to the report, located the individuals, and identified them. Both males were issued citations for trespassing.
Suspicious BYU Police responded to a report of a suspicious container chained to a stop sign near Lot 34. Upon arrival, an officer discovered the container was being used as a makeshift market, featuring a cooler with drinks and a QR code for Venmo payments. The officer notified BYU Security and advised them to address the situation during their next shift in accordance with campus policies.
Trespassing BYU Police responded to the RB fields after noticing people using the fields despite the gates being locked and a trespassing notice posted. The officer contacted approximately 15 - 20 individuals, who admitted to using the fields despite knowing they were trespassing. The officer educated the individuals and warned them that they would be cited for future incidents.
Found Property While on patrol near the SFH, an officer was approached by an individual who had found a BYU student ID card. The officer took possession of the card and later delivered it to Heritage Halls 10, where the student was located, and returned the ID card to its rightful owner.
Welfare Check A BYU student initiated a safewalk through the BYU app online but failed to indicate that she had arrived safely. Somehow, the app disconnected from the student, prompting BYU dispatch to initiate a welfare check. The officer located her safe in her apartment at Heritage 11. The student had pressed the "Arrived at Destination" button; however, the safewalk app disconnected on her, and she did not see the follow-up text messages or calls from dispatch.
Welfare Check An officer was dispatched to check on a BYU student who had initiated a safewalk but failed to notify dispatch upon arrival, and she hadn't provided an apartment number at the apartment complex. Using the safewalk app's GPS tracking, the officer found that she had arrived at the University Studio Apartments, matching her reported residence. Although she had not activated the "arrived safe" button, the GPS confirmation reassured the officer of her safety. Attempts to contact her via phone and messages to emergency contacts were unsuccessful, and multiple door knocks at the apartments yielded no success.
