Homeless man was harassing students
On Nov. 17 officers were dispatched to Redondo Apartment A where a homeless male who called himself “Preacher Lames (sic) Lawrence” was harassing female students, police reports said. Lawrence said he believed his daughter was in building A and that the building is overrun by demons. Lawrence already had a warrant out for his arrest and officers took him into custody, reports said. Lawrence was compliant with the officers but threw rocks at the building, police said.
Drunk man calls cops and loses girlfriend
A man called UNMPD on Nov. 19 to report he had been beaten up.
When officers arrived at the man’s location at the corner of Lomas Boulevard and Yale Boulevard, they found him to be “highly intoxicated,” police reports said. The man refused to provide any details to police, but said he was jumped after leaving Post 13 where he was having a few beers. Police asked the man what, exactly, he wanted police to help him with and the man said he wanted to make sure his girlfriend was okay.
Reports said the man was unable to spell his girlfriend’s name or tell officers where she lived. UNMPD officers left the scene after telling him to call back when he had sobered up and could provide them with more details. Later that night, an APD officer was dispatched in reference to the same man and was able to get enough information to contact his girlfriend and check her welfare.
Officers found her safe at home, reports said.
