10:23 p.m. Stoop kid smoking on the stoop

 

Dakota Tarbox, 19, was given a summons for possession of a usable amount of marijuana. An R.A. reported two people smoking marijuana on the front steps of Androscoggin Hall. When officers arrived, they found Tarbox and an 18-year-old male smoking on the steps. The students were also drinking beer. Officers found more beer and marijuana after searching Tarbox’s bag. The other student was referred to Judicial Affairs for the incident.

 

10:58 p.m. Burn cruise bust

 

Summonses were handed to Jama Ahmed, 20, and Abdi Abdilatif, 20, for illegal transportation of drugs by a minor and illegal possession of a usable amount of marijuana respectively. Ahmed was driving a gray Saab past Cumberland Hall with four other passengers and pulled over to let some of them out. Three officers, who were on foot patrol in front of Cumberland, smelled a strong odor of marijuana coming from Ahmed’s car when he drove by. When Ahmed stopped, the officers approached the car to investigate. Only one of the five people in the car was a UMaine student. Abdilatif was found to be in possession of marijuana and was given a summons; Ahmed was also summonsed for transportation. Because neither of them are students at UMaine, they were also given trespassing notices that expire May 14.
