- As they patrolled the Goizueta Business School on Jan. 28 at 4:08 p.m., Emory Police Department (EPD) officers stopped an individual that they believed had been sleeping in the building, based on descriptions of the subject in previous calls from witnesses. EPD issued the subject a trespass warning and asked him not to return to campus. He was allowed to leave the area that night.
- EPD officers again found the individual who had received the trespass warning – a black male subject who is approximately 6 feet 2 inches tall and 215 pounds – in Cannon Chapel on Feb. 3 at 11:16 p.m. The officers arrested the subject, who was charged with criminal trespassing and transported to the DeKalb County Jail.
- A student contacted EPD on Jan. 26 at 3:29 p.m. to report an online scam. She stated that she had found a job, via Craigslist, as a “personal assistant.” The “employer” sent her a check for a large sum of money, requesting that she first deposit it into her checking account and then send a money order to England from her account. She then received a second check and was asked to perform the same set of tasks. But when she tried to deposit the second check, her bank informed her that her account had been put on hold because the first check had bounced. This case is now under investigation.
- An EPD officer responded to Glenn Memorial Church on Jan. 28 at 1:07 p.m. in response to a call about a suspicious person. According to the caller, a 64-year-old, white male subject had entered the building and then refused to leave when asked. The subject told the EPD officer that he was heading to his car, which was parked at Oxford Road and North Decatur Road, and that he was living at Atlanta Mission. The officer assisted him with locating his vehicle, and he departed campus without further incident.
