A Cuesta student was recently arrested on campus for an outstanding warrant, after police found her screaming in a locker room during a power outage, authorities said.
Campus police were called to a disturbance near the pool on Feb. 16 and located a woman who they allege was intoxicated, Police Chief Bryan Millard said.
The officers then took her to a Cuesta mental health worker for evaluation, Millard said.

This is false reporting at its worse. There was no outstanding warrant, resisting arrest or tiny bail of $5,000.00. There wasn’t even a power outage. There was no psychiatric evaluation on campus. And no one stays in jail 5 days for an intoxication charge. There was no court date due! Shame on the author of this article!
