No more table tennis for you

Officers did not recognize either of the males and asked for identification. The males were identified as (redacted), 24 and (redacted), 23. Both were non-students and listed their home address as the Bangor Area Homeless Shelter. One week prior, one of the individuals was issued a trespassing notice for the university. When officers ran the second name, there was an outstanding warrant for his arrest and he was transported to Penobscot County Jail (PCJ). Both were reissued a one-year trespassing notice.
