An MSU student was arrested by campus police Monday for criminal trespassing, after ordering a motorist to drive him to Mexico.
Twenty-year-old Stanley Umoh, who lives in Pierce, entered a occupied vehicle parked in front of a residence on the 2100 block of Clarinda, according to Jeff Hughes, public information officer with the WFPD.
He then told the operator of the vehicle, 27-year-old Matt White, to start driving.
White is not an MSU student and was working on Clarinda when the incident occurred, Hughes said.
Umoh, who was apparently unarmed, ordered White to drive him to Mexico.
Hughes said Umoh reportedly told White that he had plenty of money and that they were “going to a nice place.”
White drove to the intersection of Taft and Midwestern Parkway, stopped. He opened the door and ran, leaving Umoh unattended.
Umoh, left in the car alone in the middle of busy intersection, also started hoofing it.
Hughes said Umoh was seen jogging west toward campus, eventually slowing to a casual walk.
He entered D.L. Ligon Coliseum, where he was apprehended by campus police at about noon.
Hughes said arresting officers found him standing on a basketball court in the gym.
Hughes said it did not appear as if Umoh was under the effects of drugs or alcohol, but no tests were administered by officers.
“It was just kind of a weird deal,” Hughes said.
According to Wichita County Jail records, Umoh is not currently being detained.
Umoh’s Facebook profile indicates that he works for Enterprise Rent-a-Car.
