From today's Campus Watch crime report:
Trinity Parking Garage (1815 Trinity Ave.)
Burglary of Motor Vehicle / Criminal Mischief / Evading: A UT police officer discovered a non-UT subject attempting to gain entrance into a red Dodge truck that was parked on the 3rd level of the garage. When the suspect saw the officer, he took off running. According to several witnesses, the suspect used "cat-like reflexes" and jumped from the 2nd level to the ground level and continued running. With the speed of a gazelle, the officer gave chase and was able to take the suspect into custody. During the investigation, the officer soon learned that the suspect had burglarized a tan Kia and had removed an iPod mini. The suspect was charged with Burglary of Motor Vehicle / Criminal Mischief / Evading after being transported to Central Booking. Occurred on: 7-29-08, at 9:30 AM.
The "cat-like reflexes" thing made me laugh. Several witnesses reported "cat-like relexes"...several of them. Heh heh. And, then the officer was quick like a gazelle. Oh my. Sorry I missed it all.
