Student takes a trip to prison
October 26, 2016
Campus police have charged Jacob Hall, 22, of New Florence, Westmoreland County, with burglary, criminal trespass, defiant trespass and theft Oct. 13.
An officer said he responded to a report that Hall had been found in a Cascade Townhouse by its residents attempting to steal three cans of beer and a bottle of vodka, according to the Tribune-Democrat.
Hall reportedly dropped the alcohol and fled through the townhouse’s back door.
Campus police reportedly had issued a no-entry ban on Hall Sept. 19.
Hall was informed of the charges and lodged in the Cambria County Prison after failing to post a $20,000 bond to assure his appearance in further proceedings.
A prison shift supervisor said last Friday Hall was no longer being held at the prison.
