Assault
April 1 at 10:27 a.m., Christina Cathey told officers she had been assaulted by her boyfriend in her Carpenter Complex apartment. The suspect, who has no affiliation with The University of Memphis, broke into the apartment and pushed her aside while trying to make off with her computer, a police report said. Though Cathey's injuries were minor and the suspect has been arrested, officers said the case has not yet been resolved.
April 3 at 11:26 p.m., Mikail Phillips made an intimidation complaint from Mynders Hall, saying that fellow student Anecia Monroe had been bullying her for the past month and that she feared the situation would escalate into something worse. Monroe claimed that she had not threatened Phillips, though Phillips said she believes Monroe had continued to intimidate her to goad her into a fight. The case remains unsolved.
April 12 at 7:02 p.m., Keith Phillips was sitting on the south patio of the FedEx Institute of Technology when an acquaintance suddenly ran up to him and struck him in the face. Phillips is not connected to The U of M in any way, and the case is still being investigated.
Illegal Substances
April 4 at 2:15 p.m., Angie Wilson, an employee of the Child Care Center housed at Carpenter Complex, was approached by a parent who claimed to have found a small baggie filled with a leafy green substance. U of M police officers used a marijuana testing kit to examine the contents of the bag, which turned up positive for cannabis. The bag was promptly transferred over to 201 Poplar Ave. to the MPD Property Room.
Theft
April 1 at 8:01 p.m., Houston Preuett told officers that he had placed his keys and phone in one of the cubbies at the Student Recreation and Fitness Center an hour earlier.
