Kieffer Hall resident charged with underage drinking

SU police responded to a report of an intoxicated female in Kieffer Hall on Feb. 20. 

It was reported at approximately 10 p.m. that the female had been out drinking off campus, and when she came back she was stumbling around and having trouble walking. Upon arrival, patrol units met Olivia Ryan of Wellsboro, Pennsylvania. 

In speaking with her, they observed that she had bloodshot, glassy eyes, a strong odor of alcohol and slurred speech. 

Ryan was transported to Chambersburg Hospital due to her intoxication level and received a citation for underage drinking.

Harley Hall resident charged with possession of drug paraphernalia

SU officers were dispatched to Harley Hall after receiving a report of an odor of marijuana on the third floor on Feb. 22 at approximately 3 p.m. 

Police detected the odor of burnt marijuana coming from a room on the third floor, belonging to Tedd Jean. Upon opening the door, a strong odor of burnt marijuana was detected after the door was opened.  

Jean allowed officers to enter the room, and once inside provided them with a black and red striped glass pipe. 

Jean was charged with possession of drug paraphernalia.

Student charged with paraphernalia, small amount of marijuana

SU officers were conducting speed enforcement in front of Grace B. Luhrs Elementary School on Feb. 23 at approximately 1 p.m. 

Officers observed Michael Hatcher, of Harrisburg, driving a white Hyundai sedan on Dauphin Drive heading toward their location. Police timed the vehicle traveling at 34 mph in a 15 mph zone. 

A traffic stop was conducted on Hatcher, and when Hatcher put the driver’s side window down the officer could smell a strong odor of fresh marijuana coming from inside the vehicle.  

Hatcher was asked for consent to search the vehicle and complied. During the search, officers found a small smoked cigar which contained marijuana in the top of the center console. 

They also found a glass multi-color pipe which contained marijuana residue, and a jar that contained more paraphernalia along with a small bag of marijuana inside the bottom compartment of the console. 

Hatcher was charged with possession of paraphernalia and a small amount of marijuana.
