Crime Filler

A student reported a battery incident March 3 at Briscoe Quad around 2:30 a.m. according to the IUPD crime log.  

IU Police Department Public Information Officer Hannah Skibba said in an email a student reported that three unknown men, identified by the Office of Student Conduct as IU students, called them derogatory names. The incident resulted in two of the four people being charged with aggravated battery, according to the IUPD crime log.  

The student who reported the incident then threw food at one of the men’s face, which led to a physical altercation between the four of them.  

Skibba said that the incident did not rise to the level of a hate crime. 

The reporting student sustained non-life-threatening facial injuries.  

The IU Office of Student Conduct is working closely with the IUPD investigations unit.
