Fraud

A 20-year-old female student in North Hubbard Hall was the victim of a scam, costing her more than $2000. She corresponded with an individual who she thought would provide her with a job since September, doing errands for somebody who claimed they were out of town frequently.

The suspect sent the individual a $3000 check, which bounced, to be deposited in their bank account. Then, since that was an alleged advance on several weeks of work, the victim sent the suspect money back through Moneygram.com, some of it was supposed to be used to purchase several prepaid cards. Because the check the suspect sent was faulty, he managed to scam the victim out of the money she wired to them.

Simple assault

Two male students, one 18 and the other 17, got in a disagreement that ended in MSU police being called for assault on Oct. 20. In West Wilson Hall. The victim, the 18-year-old, claimed the suspect, the 17-year-old threatened him and shoved his finger in his face. The 17-year-old disputed that, saying the two only had a heated disagreement.

Accident

At 9:50 a.m. on Oct. 20, an 18-year-old male student was driving through Ramp One near Shaw Hall, when he struck another vehicle, driven by a female from East Lansing. He drove speedily around a turn and didn't notice the female, striking her car, causing both vehicles to suffer damage less than $1000.
