At 11 p.m. on Aug. 12, Officer Sarah Angelo issued a summons to Jason Umbehr, 20, of Orono for charges of operating a motor vehicle without a license and violation of restrictions. She stopped Umbehr at The Avenue apartment complex after following him from campus. Angelo observed him blow through a stop sign, according to the report.

Around 2 a.m. on Aug. 14, Angelo arrested Gregorios Dimoulas, 21, of Orono for operating under the influence of alcohol. She stopped Dimoulas near Main Street after noticing that his car had an expired registration. Dimoulas apparently was not making sense and smelled like alcohol, according to the report. He did poorly on a field sobriety exam and was taken back to the police station for an intoxilyzer test, but was not cooperative. Police then took Dimoulas to St. Joseph Hospital for a blood test, but the results were not immediately available. Angelo charged Dimoulas with operating a motor vehicle while under the influence and took him to the Penobscot County Jail where he was later bailed out and given a Sept. 24 court date.
