At 6:12 a.m., patrolling DPS officers found a 1994 Ford Explorer with two smashed windows in the 1400 block of West Kilbourn Avenue. The officers spoke with the owner of the vehicle, a 27-year-old female student, who reported an I-PASS, iPod charger and cell phone charger stolen. The estimated loss of property is $115, and the estimated damage to the vehicle is unknown at this time.

At 8:25 p.m., DPS officers were sent to the 11th floor of McCormick Hall after receiving reports that a suspicious odor was coming from one of the dorm rooms. A 19-year-old male student was exiting the room the smell was coming from just as officers arrived on scene. The student stated that he had no idea why his room smelled like burnt marijuana, that he was not smoking in his room and that, to his knowledge, there weren't any illegal items in his room. When officers searched the room, they found rolling papers, a glass water pipe, an "improvised" water pipe, several multi-colored glass pipes, a cigarette rolling machine, beer, wine and an orange prescription bottle that contained a small plastic bag filled with a green leafy substance. When the student's 18-year-old roommate arrived on scene, he claimed that all of the contraband, excluding the green leafy substance, was his. Milwaukee Police Department officers arrested the 19-year-old student for possession of marijuana and arrested the 18-year-old student for possession of drug paraphernalia.
