Sgt. Lucas Alder, Public Safety Officer

Public Safety Officers respond to many calls for service and we communicate our activities to the college community.  Here are some of the notable incidents from the past couple weeks. 

On Sept. 23, a man came on campus and began yelling at and harassing employees in the Cafeteria area.  A Public Safety Officer was in the vicinity when this occurred and quickly removed the man from campus. 

 On Sept. 21, a fight occurred at the Goodman South campus.  Public Safety made contact with both parties and took appropriate action.  The incident is still being looked into. 

 On Sept. 20, a man was found trespassing at the Goodman South campus.  Public Safety made contact with the individual and escorted them off property. 

On Sept. 22, a Public Safety officer observed an individual attempting to steal a bike parked on campus.  The officer began chasing the individual, who eventually jumped off the bike but fled the area.  The bike was recovered and returned to its owner. 

A friendly reminder that if you do ride your bike to campus, utilize the bike racks and be sure to lock up your bike.
