As shards of glass are cleared away and boards replace broken glass windows, East Lansing business owners and MSU students are wondering how a basketball game re1mlted in property destruction. "College students get drunk every weekend, but they don't riot," said Kristyn Hausauer, a journalism senior and shift supervisor at FREE EMAIL • FREE ONLINE RESUMES • LOCAL BUSINESS DISCOUNTS Bruegger's Bagels, 505 E. Grand River Ave. "It is hard to believe that college students could act so irresponsibly." The bagel shop's glass door was shattered when rioters threw a wooden barricade through it It was among at least 24 downtown the Future arrives April 14 windows damaged in this weekend's riot, according to statistics released Sunday by East Lansing police. The riot began as fans flood­ ed city and campus streets after MSU lost the men's basketball game. Fires and destruction continued until nearly dawn. www.UCFfuture.com "We already lost a couple hundred bucks just to put that wood in there," Hausauer said of the plywood board that replaced the glass. Hausauer said the only thing businesses can do to prevent bro­ ken windows is "pray that it never happens again." Attempting to avoid destruction as crowds swarmed the city, Joel Lichty, owner of Veritas Wine Shop, 110 Division St., kept the lights off Saturday night. He stayed in the business in case rioters broke in, but his store was untouched. "I was really angry, but you don't know who to focus your anger on," said Lichty, who has been at the Division Street location for two years. "This is the worst yet." fm Connected to Lichty's store is Footgear, 108 Division St., where ~! a large window was broken and single shoes were taken from a dis­ play. "This store is not a chain," said Sharon Waldron, an English senior and employee. ''There are only two people who work here so this is going to be a big expense. "I've worked here for three years, so it is kind of like my store, too. You're not hurting the city, you're hurting the individual store owners." Waldron said students' reaction after the game was ridiculous. "People are more worried about a basketball game than (the fact) we are bombing people (in Kosovo)," she said.

SEATTLE - A student who was apparently upset about receiving a second failing grade in his English class brandished weapons and held two people hostage at Seattle Central Community Col1ege. No one was injured during the March 17 ordeal. Campus police arrested Kai-Ting Hung and charged him with assault, threats with intent to cause injµry and holding people hostage. Witnesses said Hung was screaming as he burst into a campus building that houses international education programs. They also repmted that he barricaded himself in a student services-office, where he briefly held the instructor who had given him the bad grade and a program coordinator hostage with a large knife, a meat cleaver and a beer bottle. When Hung attempted to open the door and lunge for three campus police officers, they aimed at him with pepper spray. According to police reports, Hung continued to hold the weapons and scream as he tried to leave the building. He was arrested before he could get out. School officials said program directors will evaluate whether Hung, who is a Taiwanese student enrolled in the college's interna­ tional studies program, should be discharged. He has twice failed a class focused on English as a second language and could have dif­ ficulties keeping his student visa because he has failed to demon­ strate satisfactory academic progress, school officials said.

TUCSON, Ariz. - A student at the University of Arizona called police March 17 after finding a threatening note on her car. According to the Daily Wildcat, the message stated: "You stole my man you whore. I know who you are and know where you live. I'm going to come and get you later bitch." The student told poli~e she had no idea who left the note and was frightened by what she called an apparent mix-up.

PALO ALTO, Calif. - Stanford University's oldest fraternity was shut down March 8 after being connected to two alcohol-relat­ ed incidents. CAB Cinema Committee Presents: Marc Wais, dean of students, revoked Phi Delta Theta's chru:­ ter for the next five years. His decision was backed by a unanimous recommendation from the university's Greek Judicial Board . . The fraternity's troubles started last April when then-freshman Mike Ternoey, who was rushing the group, was seriously injured Kevin Smith during what was later determined to be an act of hazing involving alcohol. The fraternity was placed · on a .one-year probation and ordered to ban alcohol at all Phi Delt functions.

LOS ANGLES - Police are searc'hing for a man accused of posing as a casting agent and sexually abusing women he solicited near the University of California-Los Angeles. Prosecutors filed a 31-count indictment March 16 charging Michael Peers, 50, with sexual battery, videotaping without per­ mission and penetration by a foreign object. Police departments across the state have been alerted to be on the lookout for .Peers, who ran what are believed to be two bogus businesses, the Showbiz Club and Casting Studios of America, out of his apartment. Campus police also are in touch with New York authorities, where Peers, also known as Mario Perez, has relatives.

Court records state that many of the women told police that once inside Peers' apartment, he would inspect their bodies while secretly videotaping them. "Some of the women alleged that Peers photographed them when they were nude, applying oil to their bodies, and in some instances, stimulating their breasts," a statement released by the Los Angeles City Attorney's office said. Camps police learned about Peers after a student reported that he had sexually assaulted her. Peers was arrested and released after posting a $15,000 bail. 8:00 p.m. According to the Daily Bruin, university police obtained a search warrant for Peers' apartment in November and seized 65 videotapes, a video camera, a 35 mm camera and photos and slides of women in various stages of undress.
