One Syracuse basketball fan didn't get to rush the court after the Georgetown game on Feb. 16. A 32-year-old resident of West Leyden, N.Y. was handcuffed and escorted out of the Carrier Dome after a drunken altercation with Syracuse Police officers.

The man was standing outside of Section 108 in a no-standing zone when an officer asked him to return to his seat. He responded, "I'm not going anywhere." After the officer asked a second time, he said, "No," and was told to leave the Dome, according to a report from the Syracuse Police Department.

As he was escorted down the hall by two officers, the report stated he continually tried to turn around before pushing one of the officers against the wall. At this point he was handcuffed and charged with second-degree harassment.

*Another GPS system was stolen out of a student's car. A Garmin GPS device was stolen from the 2005 Mazda of a sophomore in the Whitman School of Management Thursday, according to a SPD report. The car was parked outside the student's residence in the 1200 block of Harrison Street when the driver's side window was broken into. At least three GPS devices were stolen from cars in the university area in late January and early February.

*A Syracuse resident was arrested for ticket resale on the corner of Waverly and University Avenues at 11 a.m. Feb. 16, according to an SPD report.

*A senior marketing and Spanish major received a citation for possession of an open container. He was walking in the 400 block of Clarendon Street when he was stopped by SPD at 2:30 a.m. Sunday, according to a report.

*A sound reproduction citation was issued in the 100 block of Redfield Place on Saturday at 2:30 a.m. to a senior in the State University of New York's College of Environmental Science and Forestry.
