Tune robber

A late-night stroll
An officer on patrol pursued and arrested an individual in the Ornamental Gardens off Rangeley Road at 2:08 a.m. on Sept. 21. After observing three individuals enter the gardens, he decided to investigate due to the hour. He identified one individual as Jason Means, 20, of York, Maine, and learned that he was out on bail for a prior arrest. Part of the bail conditions were to not possess or to consume alcohol. The officer determined Means was drinking by administering a breathalyzer test, arrested him and transported him to Penobscot County Jail.
Another bike “borrow”
A women’s white, seven-speed Giant bicycle was reported stolen at 6:19 p.m. on Sept. 22. The bicycle, estimated at $55, had been taken between 9 a.m. and 9 p.m. the previous day. Officers located it propped against a tree and returned it to the student.
Safe and sound
Officers were called to aid in the search for a 23-year-old male at 8 p.m. on Sept. 22. The police reported the man to have an “intellectual disability.” Concern was expressed for the individual who had missed his ride. Several officers searched the campus and could not locate him. He was later found safe and off campus.
Returnable retrieval
