University police charged Devon Lee Glover Jr., 18, of Reading, Pennsylvania, on Oct. 18 with receiving stolen property and underage drinking. Glover was with two other males and was stopped while crossing North Earl Street because he was carrying a large ceramic head which was believed to have been removed from the rear of the Shippensburg University Huber Arts Center.

University police received reports on Oct. 20 of a hit-and-run accident. Justin F.

Fatal vision goggles stolen during homecoming

University police received reports on Oct. 21 of stolen property.

The staff member reported that two pairs of fatal vision goggles that were being used during an information session at the homecoming tailgating activities were missing. At some point there were a total of six pairs of the goggles being used, and another staff member had packed up some of them when it began to rain during their use. This individual did not count the goggles when they were packed up and did not realize that any were missing at that time. On Wednesday, when the staff checked the container that the goggles are kept in, they discovered that two pairs were missing. The missing goggles are valued at approximately $99 per pair.
