  • Accident: Two Boalsburg residents were treated and released from Centre Community Hospital as a result of a one-vehicle accident Wednesday, the State College Police Department said.

    Sarah Schipp, 16, and her passenger were driving on U.S. Route 322 when an animal ran out in front of the vehicle, State College police said. The car, a 1993 Plymouth Laser, swerved left, crossed the southbound lane and veered off the road until it stopped in a ditch, State College police said. The Boalsburg Fire Department secured the car so it would not fall further into the ditch, State College police said.

  • Simple Assault: A student reported being assaulted early yesterday morning on Shortlidge Road, University Police Services said. The person did not receive medical attention and an investigation is continuing, University police said.

  • Theft: An employee of American Outfitters in the Nittany Mall reported yesterday the theft of 10 jackets from the store throughout the week, State College police said.

    The estimated value of the jackets is $3,600.

  • Theft: A student's bed and other items were reported stolen from his room yesterday in Pennypacker Hall, University police said. His bed was found in the laundry room and believed to be part of an April Fool's Day joke, University police said.

  • Vandalism: Three individuals were observed damaging a gazebo on the 400 block of Waupelani Drive early yesterday morning, State College police said.

    Damages are expected to be more than $1,000. State College police are continuing their investigation.
