A resident of Brighton contacted UR Security to report individuals illegally hunting on University property, according to Director of UR Security Walter Mauldin.

The resident reported that individuals had been hunting with bows and arrows south of the Laboratory for Laser Energetics on the South Campus.

After investigating the scene, UR Security discovered two hunting stands, possibly used for hunting. Also found were the remnants of arrows, also possibly used for hunting.

After the incident, University Facilities posted “No Hunting” signs in the area.

While redundant due to Town of Brighton laws making hunting illegal at all times, the signs are intended to discourage literate scofflaws from further similar action on University property.Rough night for Sue B. males as alcohol hospitalizes threeA male student suffering from acute alcohol intoxication was found in the traffic circle outside of Susan B.
