Attempted vandalization of the Spartan Statue

The Spartan Statue was the victim of an attempted vandalism at 4:20 a.m. on Oct. 15. A group of individuals with a University of Michigan license plate rolled up to the statue, shouting profanities and blasting their fight song as a distraction. Someone then snuck and spray-painted the crescent shaped wall behind the statue with the block "M" and "Go Blue." The crime was listed as malicious destruction of property.

Repeated thefts

Over the past 30 days, individuals at the Berkowitz Basketball Complex have reported items being taken from lockers. Clothing including shoes, sweaters, T-shirts and headphones were reported stolen, totaling a $500 value. The office is typically unlocked so individuals can use it. There is video surveillance of the area that has not been reviewed yet, at which point MSU police will try to develop suspects.
