(Editor’s Note: The following article is a PARODY. None of the events described actually happened, at least not in the manner described. So put the phone down and relax.)
CRIMINAL NAUGHTINESS
A 21-year-old male student phoned University Police on Wednesday and said numerous men had exposed themselves to him. The student was in the men’s locker room shower when the incident occurred.
Two 19-year-old female students were arrested Monday for stopping, between classes, in the middle of the sidewalk between the JKHB and the library construction pit. Pedestrian traffic was tied up for several minutes as the two women, who reportedly are roommates anyway, stood there and yammered about how some guy in their ward was going to ask one of them out, or something. The suspects were charged with Criminal Dawdling. Police are urging students to keep it movin’.
MISCHIEVOUS PRANKERY
An 18-year-old female student was caught leaving the magazine area of the bookstore with a magazine in her hand. She claimed she was merely going to a register to purchase the magazine; however, police doubted her story, since the bookstore has never actually sold a magazine in its entire history. Instead, students sit on the floor and read them, like it’s some kind of library.
A 23-year-old female student living in Wymount Terrace reported Tuesday evening that there was a man in her apartment. The man was her husband. The incident is under investigation. Police are urging students not to get married.
PRANKISH MISCHIEFERY
Eight one-dollar bills were stolen from the cash register in the Porter Rockwell Museum and Shootin’ Gallery gift shop sometime Monday morning. The dollar bills are valued at approximately $1 apiece.
Two 23-year-old female students were taken to the McDonald McHealth Center this week after calling University Police on three separate occasions claiming to have seen the Three Nephites, John the Revelator, and Hugh Nibley. Doctors determined that the students were fresh off their missions and not quite grounded in reality again yet. The doctors wrote them a prescription to watch “Tommy Boy” and sent them home.
SUSPICIOUS SUSPICIOUSNESS
Police discovered a 29-year-old male sitting in a parked car in the Martin Harris Lost & Found parking lot. It was determined that he was the same individual who had been seen parking there previously. The incident is under investigation.
A 22-year-old female student reported Sunday that she thought was being stalked. The same male suspect had come to her house frequently, always uninvited, since the beginning of the semester, and had always tried to engage her in conversation, despite her firm declarations that she did not wish to speak with him. Police investigation revealed that the suspect was the victim’s home teacher. He was arrested and charged with Zealous Duty-Doing.
Two 18-year-old male students were jogging at 5:30 a.m. Tuesday when they reportedly saw a man walking. The man appeared to be about 60 years old, and he allegedly had a dog, on a leash, with him. The man did not approach the students. The incident is under investigation.
VEHICULAR WACKINESS
An 87-year-old student was driving her Cadillac Aircraft Carrier on East Campus Drive near the J. Golden Kimball Center for Religious Swearing Wednesday morning when she struck a bicyclist. The car suffered scratches and dents to the left front fender area, totalling approximately $900 in damages. The bicycle was severely damaged, with both rims being bent beyond repair, the crossbar broken in half, and the handlebars ripped off. Total damage is estimated at $400. The bicyclist, a 19-year-old male student, was found several blocks away, on the roof of LeMar’s. He was referred to the Honor Code Council.
On Tuesday, several students were caught walking slowly and nonchalantly into a crosswalk, despite seeing quite clearly that cars were coming from both directions and would have to brake to avoid hitting them. The students were taken into the woods and shot.
BAD CRIMINAL EVIL STUFF
A 19-year-old female student was studying at the library Thursday evening when a male suspect hurried past her and stole her backpack. She phoned police, but they were unable to locate the suspect. The victim describes him as “tall, with dark wavy hair, gorgeous blue eyes, strong, masculine jaw, the chiseled physique of a swimmer or Greek god, and a butt you could die for,” and then she has to lie down for a while. If anyone knows the whereabouts of the suspect, the victim is requesting his phone number.
A female suspect approached a 21-year-old male student, whom she did not know, and kissed him full on the lips before running away. The victim refused to call police or press charges.
LEWDNESS CONDUCTED LEWDLY BY LEWD PEOPLE
An 18-year-old female student reported seeing a man wearing almost no clothing Monday night on campus. She described him as “exceptionally tall.” Police arrived and determined that the suspect was actually the Indian statue west of the library. The Indian statue was arrested, but the student could not be found to press charges. Police found her several minutes later, asking the man, woman and child holding hands outside of the SFLC why they weren’t wearing jackets.
A 22-year-old male student reported Thursday that as he walked past the full-length mirror in his bedroom after taking a shower, he exposed himself to himself. He is pressing charges.
An 18-year-old male student was caught viewing pornography on the Internet on a library computer Friday. He was referred to the Honor Code Council. Later the same day, he was caught viewing the same pornographic material, only this time in a Calvin Klein advertisement in a Rolling Stone magazine in the BYU Bookstore. No action was taken.
CONTENTIOUS DOMESTIC DISPUTATIONS
Three male students, ages 21-23, called University Police Tuesday night to report that their roommate, a 21-year-old male student, was destroying their couch with a hatchet. Police arrived at the scene and questioned the couch-destroyer. He reportedly said that he was “sick and tired” of coming home every night to find at least one of his roommates making out with the “girl du jour” on the couch, and was therefore trying to get rid of the couch once and for all. Police found the roommates an alternate place to make out until the couch could be replaced.
THEFT, SHMEFT
A 21-year-old male student reported Saturday that his bicycle had been stolen from a bike rack outside of the Stephen E. Robinson & Gerald N. Lund Building for People That Everyone Thinks Are General Authorities Because They Write a Lot of Books. The student told police that the bike, which was a brand-new $2,000 Schwinn Kanab, had not been locked up. Police informed him that it served him right. No further investigation is being made.
