Eight students were observed wading in the Science Complex fountain at 1 a.m. on Sunday, Sept. 9, according to reports. Campus police approached the group. An officer informed the students that swimming in the fountain was prohibited, and chased the students when they fled in different directions.
Two female students disappeared out of sight. A male student stopped running, put his hands up and was asked to stay where he was, while the officer chased another female student. When stopped, the students said they were running because they were scared. The officer smelled alcohol on the male and asked if they had been drinking. The male responded that they had had two or three drinks that night. Both students nodded when the officer asked if they were under 21 and said they drank jungle juice at an off-campus fraternity party.
The officer was then informed via police radio when another officer located the two female students who had run from the group. The students said they had been drinking. Lions EMS and Pro Staff evaluated the group and determined they did not need further medical treatment. The students returned to their dorms and all four were issued summons for underage drinking.
