Nonstudent arrested for public intoxication

Nonstudent Dustin Jayroe, 21, was arrested for public intoxication at 12:04 a.m. Jan 20. UCAPD saw Jayroe leave the Sigma Phi Epsilon house, located at the intersection of Donaghey Avenue. and Martin Street. Jayroe was swaying and stumbling as he walked. Earlier in the evening, Jayroe fell on his face in the middle of Donaghey while crossing the road to attend a party. When UCAPD made contact with Jayroe in front of the house, they noticed he had red, glassy, watery eyes and he smelled strongly of intoxicants. UCAPD asked for Jayroe’s ID and he responded with “unintelligible words.” When asked again, he said it might be in his car. UCAPD helped Jayroe across Donaghey to his car so he could find his identification. The vehicle was halfway in the parking spot. Although his car was well lit, Jayroe used his phone as a flashlight to search for his ID in the console and passenger seat. Jayroe informed UCAPD he thinks he left his identification at his friend’s apartment off Salem. Jayroe then tried to put his keys in the ignition and attempted to start his car. UCAPD told Jayroe to take the keys out of the ignition and exit the vehicle. Jayroe was taken to the UCA Police Department to file paper work.
