FAKE ID

UAF police arrested a Fairbanks man after discovering he was pretending to be a woman's husband in order to live in Walsh Hall.

Joe Bryant, 28, of Fairbanks posed as Carleton Towne III so he could live in family housing with the real Towne's wife, according to the Sept. 12 complaint. A judge placed bail at $1,000 bail and stipulated he "stay off of UAF property."

Bryant pled not guilty Wednesday to an A misdemeanor charge of criminal impersonation. Trial is set for Oct. 27.

According to the complaint, Ashley Chavis, Towne's real wife, had used her marriage license to get an apartment in Walsh Hall. However, she and Towne no longer lived together, the complaint says. Bryant, who was homeless, needed a place to stay, so she let him sign the agreement as her husband and live at her place, the complaint says.

Residence Life officials soon began to suspect that the person who signed the housing agreement was not really Towne. Police arrested Bryant on Sept. 12. Police also found he was violating his probation conditions.

LAST DANCE

Officers assisted Residence Life staff with a student who refused to leave the Hot Toga Night Dance in Hess Recreation Center on Sept. 9.

The person, Devin Frank, 22, was hostile and expressed suicidal thoughts, according to police. He also was disruptive and resisted detainment, police said. Police arrested Frank for disorderly conduct and resisting arrest, and was taken into protective custody.

BAD DRIVERS

Police stopped a vehicle Sept. 9 for an equipment violation. Police said the driver, Roger James, 23, was under the influence of alcohol and had a four-year-old in the vehicle. James registered a .103 breath alcohol concentration. Police arrested James and charged him for driving under the influence and reckless endangerment.

HIGH TIMES

A police officer on patrol in Skarland Hall on Sept. 11 smelled the odor of marijuana wafting from a room. The officer contacted the occupants, and one was trespassed from Skarland. Police turned the matter over to Residence Life.

OUCH

Police responded to the MacLean House on Sept. 11 after receiving a report of someone being assaulted. The victim appeared to know his assailants. Later inquiries showed that the assault appeared to be mutual and that alcohol was likely involved.

THREATENING E-MAILS

Police received a report Sept. 8 of someone sending anonymous e-mails to the UAF administration stating that other staff members were planning acts of vandalism. Police logged the incident as a terroristic threat, but said the e-mails do not appear to contain any substantial claims.
