Student arrested for DWI, threatening to bite, kick officer
Officers arrested a 20-year-old female student Sept. 3 for DWI, simple assault, running four stop signs and an expired driver’s license.
Officers were patrolling the area in front of McVoy Hall around 1 a.m. when they heard the sound of tires squealing nearby, Tabor said.
Officers watched Emily Provosty of 100 East Park Place, New Orleans, drive straight through four stop signs at more than 20 mph, Tabor said.
When officers stopped Provosty, she failed a field sobriety test, Tabor said. As officers tried to take her into the LSUPD building, she threatened to bite the officer while screaming, “Don’t touch me.”
Tabor said Provosty had a blood alcohol level of 0.132 grams percent — more than six times the legal limit for a minor.
When officers tried to place Provosty in a holding cell, she threatened to kick the officer.
Provosty was booked in East Baton Rouge Parish Prison, Tabor said.
Students arrested for stealing fire extinguisher from Tiger Trails bus
LSU Police Department officers arrested two University students Sept. 5 for stealing a fire extinguisher.
Officers found John Lapoint, 18, of 6575 Morgan Shores Road, Lake Arthur, and Collin Simar, 18, of 3261 Empire Road, Jennings, using the extinguisher in the University Student Recreation Complex parking lot at 12:35 a.m., said Sgt. Blake Tabor, LSUPD spokesman.
Officers assumed they took the extinguisher from a Tiger Trails bus, Tabor said. The bus driver later confirmed their suspicions, and the extinguisher was returned.
Both students were issued a misdemeanor summons, Tabor said.
Students arrested for marijuana, drug paraphernalia possession
LSUPD arrested two students Aug. 30 for simple possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia.
Officers saw a car parked on West Lakeshore Drive near the Phi Mu sorority house with several males inside at 1:14 a.m., Tabor said.
The suspects fled when officers approached the car, Tabor said.
Officers detained Blake Scott, 19, of 205 Persimmon Hill, Ridgeland, Miss., and Michael Hauser, 18, of 411 Red Head Court, McKinney, Texas, Tabor said.
Hauser was found with 5.2 grams of marijuana, and Scott admitted to having 1.6 grams of marijuana in his car, Tabor said.
Officers also found three marijuana pipes in the car, Tabor said.
Both students were issued misdemeanor summonses, Tabor said.
Students arrested for marijuana, running from police
LSUPD officers arrested three male suspects Sept. 1 for a series of drug-law violations.
Officers were patrolling near the Bernie Moore Track Stadium parking lot when they saw five men sitting on a cement walkway at 12:38 a.m., Tabor said.
The suspects ran toward Broussard Hall as officers approached them. The officers detained Wright Van Edward Liliedahl, 19-year-old student, of 32 Holly Drive, LaPlace, and Zachary Revall, a 20-year-old man unaffiliated with the University, of 325 Devon Road, LaPlace, Tabor said.
Tabor said officers searched Broussard Hall for the other three suspects but were only able to find Christopher Wendt, 18-year-old student, of 1831 Paxton Drive, Carrollton, Texas.
The three suspects refused to identify the other two men, Tabor said.
Liliedahl was issued a misdemeanor summons for possession of marijuana, a marijuana grinder and pipe, Tabor said.
Revall and Wendt were issued misdemeanor summonses for resisting arrest.
