,”April 13

At 6:46 p.m., officers were dispatched to the 1500 block of West Wells Street. The officers observed a man speaking with two 20-year-old male Marquette students, who walked away as the officers approached. When the officers asked the man if he was asking the students for money, the man claimed he was just asking for directions, and he left the scene. After the man left, the two students returned to speak with the officers. One student said he gave the man, who used the name "Pastor Dave" as an alias, $25 because he said he needed to fix his van, and the other student gave the man $30. The man was eventually located and taken into custody by the Milwaukee Police Department. He was issued a citation for theft and was advised to stay off university property.
