Students keep Health Center busy
False labor and a hand laceration kept the Student Health Center busy last week.
Campus police reported that on Jan. 30, a male student in the Media Services Department, was walking through the glass doors in the Fine Arts building, near Room 10, when he missed the pushbar and went through the glass, shattering it. He was treated for three lacerations on his right hand by BC staff and told to return the next day.
In another report, a pregnant student sought help from campus police to retrieve her keys after she locked them inside her vehicle. The student, seven months pregnant, was in a hurry to leave because of labor pains.
She was taken to the Student Health Center where the nurse advised officers that the student was OK.
Woman’s missing car found burned
On Feb. 5, a female student reported that her car was stolen. She parked her 1997 Ford F-150 in the northeast parking lot around 5:50 p.m. She returned at 8 p.m. to find it missing, police reports said.
Later that day, Bakersfield Police Department notified her that her vehicle had been found burned on Panama Lane in Bakersfield.
