Car Crash Damages Lamppost and ROTC Van.

At 12:20 a.m. on Feb. 11, a report was called in to Campus Security stating damage to a curb, lamppost and government owned ROTC (Reserve Officer Training Corps) van on campus. There is no surveillance covering the incident itself, according to Mike D’Ambrosio, Operation Manager of Campus Security. Although “there is no physical witness,” D’Ambrosio said they have gathered enough evidence to involve Pasco County Sheriff’s Office. Working with the Sheriff’s office, Campus Security has gathered that the vehicle, heading west, miss-navigated the east turn, hit the curb, and went air born before taking out a lamppost, blowing a tire, and causing extensive damage to the driver’s side of the 10-passenger ROTC van.

Construction Noise Article: Why So Early in the Morning?

Saint Leo is a university that is striving to become more known throughout the state of Florida, the United States, and even the world itself. With the Donald R. Tapia School of business building going up last semester, the University really showed that it could finish construction projects expediently. With the new dormitory building going up right now in rapid fashion to attract more students, along with the new school of business, the parking problem has yet to be resolved. For a number of years now, parking has been a big and growing problem for the Saint Leo’s faculty, on-campus students, and most notably, commuter students.
