Miscellaneous incidents

At 11:31 p.m. on Jan. 22, DPS officers responded to an intoxicated student with cuts and abrasions on his face.  The student was incoherent, and the officers were unable to ascertain how he was injured because of his impaired state.  An LAFD RA unit was requested and Unit #15 responded.  The RA Unit examined the student and transported him to California Hospital Medical Center for medical treatment.

At 12:10 a.m. on Jan. 22, DPS officers responded to an intoxicated student who was reported to be unable to care for herself in West 27th Place Apartments.  LAFD RA Unit #15 was at the scene examining the student when the officers arrived, and she was subsequently transported to California Hospital Medical Center for medical treatment.

At 7:27 a.m. on Jan. 21, DPS officers responded to a report of a naked non-USC male asking for help at the Seeley Mudd Memorial Hall of Philosophy.  The officers determined the subject was intoxicated and unable to care for himself, so an LAFD RA unit was requested.  RA Unit #15 responded and examined the male, then transported him to California Hospital for medical treatment.
