Both bicycles’ serial numbers were checked and neither bike had been reported stolen.

A woman reported an odor of marijuana coming from a room in the Kaibab-Huachuca Residence Hall, 922 E. Fourth St., March 30.
When an officer arrived at 12:10 a.m. he met with the on-duty resident assistant, who said she had been doing rounds when she noticed the smell of marijuana coming from a room. She escorted the officer to the room belonging to a male student.
The officer knocked on the door and a man answered. When he opened the door the officer noticed an odor of marijuana coming from inside the room.
The man exited the room and joined the officer in the hall. He said he was visiting his friend, who was the resident of the room and they were just watching a movie.
The man denied use of marijuana and did not display any signs or symptoms of use. The officer asked the resident if he would step out and talk and he did. He attempted to close the door but, not knowing if others were in the room, the officer asked the resident to leave the door open. The resident did so reluctantly.
The resident said he had not smoked marijuana and that it was common for the hallway and his room to smell that way. The officer asked the resident to stick out his tongue and noticed a green colored tinge on the back of it, which is consistent with marijuana use.
The officer asked the resident when he last smoked and he said two days ago. The resident’s eyes were red and glossy.
When the officer asked the resident for consent to search his room, he refused and said, “”There are things I do not want you to see.””
As a result of the odor of marijuana coming from the room and the signs of use the man was displaying, Residence Life will address the issue internally.
