University Police responded to a vandalism call at the old library east building – as described by University Police – on upper campus, regarding graffiti on the building’s elevator doors on Sept. 10, University Police Captain Scott Brown said.

There are no leads regarding the crime, and no information is known on the person(s) who vandalized the elevator, Brown said.
