Officers walk in on beirut game
Tufts University Police Department (TUPD) officers responded to a call about a noise violation in Latin Way on Saturday, Oct. 7, at 3:31 a.m. When the officers arrived, they could see three or four males through the window in one of the towers.
The males were yelling, screaming and swearing out the window. The officers also found broken beer bottles on the ground, which appeared to have been thrown from the window.
When the officers went upstairs, they found a beirut game that was set up and several empty thirty packs of beer. There were also broken bottles in the hallway and stairwell. A report was filed and turned over to the Dean of Student Affairs Office.
Officers walk in on (another) beirut game
Officers responded to a call at Wilson House on Sunday, Oct. 8, at 1:21 a.m. A Resident Assistant had asked individuals in a room to be quiet around 10:30 p.m., and when they were still loud at around 1:00 a.m. she called the police.
When they arrived, they found several males and females in one room, which was "a total mess," according to TUPD Sergeant Robert McCarthy. There was a beirut game set up. There were also many empty beer cans and bottles, as well as an empty vodka bottle.
Some of the ceiling tiles were broken. The individuals also had three taps used for kegs. The taps were confiscated, along with an open 24-pack of Bud Light, which only had about 10 beers left in it. The case was turned over to the Dean's office.
