Fake IDs and Drunk Girls in Taxis in Arizona

The Frat Boy News daily campus police report for Monday:

University of Arizona (compiled by Yusra Tekbali, The Wildcat Online)

July 23 - An unidentified person switched the men's restroom sign with the woman's on the sixth floor of the Arizona Health Sciences Center.

A UA research professor said she noticed that someone had switched the signs July 22 and told faculty to fix them. The next day, she noticed the men's sign was missing. Police have no suspects or witnesses.

July 22 - Police responded to a report about a woman who refused to pay her $8 taxi fare.

A Yellow Cab employee told police he picked up the woman after police had cited and released her for underage drinking. The woman told the officer she would call a taxi to take her home and that she had enough money to pay for it. The cab driver said the woman told him to stop at the Circle K so she could use the ATM machine.

After a few moments, she ran from the store, running north before crossing the street. The cab driver lost sight of her after that and was delayed at a red light. He was unable to report the incident right away because he didn't have a cell phone. He told police he wants to pursue charges against the woman.

July 24 - Police arrested a woman for false reporting, possession of drug paraphernalia, violation of a promise to appear in court and a suspended license.

Police conducted a routine records check before noticing a warrant out for the woman's arrest. She told police she didn't have any identification on her and verbally identified herself with a false name.

The officer smelt burnt marijuana coming from inside the vehicle and checked the description in her warrant, realizing she lied about her name.

The officer then called the woman by her real name to which she responded, "Oh damn," and said she lied because she has a warrant out for her arrest. After arresting her, the officer conducted a search and found a black-handled smoking pipe in the woman's purse pocket that smelt of marijuana. The officer also found her Arizona driver's license and identification card in the purse.
