SUNDAY, March 9, 9 p.m. — Two “former friends,” both 19-year-old male students, got into a scuffle in Mountainview College’s Windham Hall after “one did something the other didn’t like,” said Investigator Dennis P. Bush of Binghamton’s New York State University Police.

Bush couldn’t say specifically what started the conflict, but that it initially involved a third party and some private property.

One of the students confronted the other about it in the hallway, but the second student “didn’t want to talk about it.”

The second student started yelling and swearing, and then punched the first student in the face “numerous times,” Bush said.

Both were residents of the same floor in Windham.

The first student came to the campus police station with his mother to report the incident, Bush said, but declined to press charges.

MONDAY, March 10, 11:51 p.m. — A 64-year-old male professor reported to police that two of his 500-gigabyte external hard drives were stolen from his office in Science I between Wednesday, March 5, and Monday, March 10.

The professor said he has left his office door unlocked and open on occasion, which might have opened the opportunity for the theft.

The $250 hard drives were connected to a desktop from a table next to his desk. Bush didn’t say what information was on the hard drives.

“He’s a professor,” Bush said. “Who knows what kind of numbers he’s crunching, ya know?”

Police have no suspects.

TUESDAY, March 11, 1:53 a.m. — An 18-year-old female resident of Newing College’s Endicott Hall has been violating her “no contact order” on a 20-year-old male resident, Bush said.

Apparently, there’s been “an ongoing thing,” Bush said, “involving harassment and similar-type crimes between the individuals.”

Residential Life staff had given the female a letter barring her from coming in contact with the male. According to police, she’s been defying that order.

“But he still doesn’t want to press charges,” Bush said, “so there’s really nothing we can do.”
