Male Student Arrested After Allegedly Masturbating in Front of Female Students
Campus law enforcement, according to Donn Peterson Chief of Police for Humboldt State University, were notified. They pursued and captured the suspect without incident.
They arrested Michael Wayne Hargrove about 6:45 p.m. Hargrove is currently in custody and, Peterson said, that HSU has asked that he be “permanently restricted from campus.” If he is released, Peterson said, “We will put out a campus wide notice asking people to let us know if he’s been seen.”
Peterson said the suspect may have victimized other women. “Right now we are aware of two,” he explained. “There may be others out there.” He hopes that if so, the other victims contact campus police. (707-826-5555)
According to Peterson, the college has services for those victimized.”We have extensive resources,” he said, “and we try to make those resources available.”

How unfortunate for the,……well,.. the parents of this nut job majoring in indecent exposure.
Where’s Lorena Bobbitt when we need her?
Where’s the photo hcsd? We need to know who to stay away from
Gender neutral headline wouldn’t be inappropriate. Campus security should be much stricter at all institutions of higher learning.
You might be wrong on this one, growler…. As for the gender of the victims, that seemed to fit a pattern we might all be interested in knowing.
And for the gender of the alleged perp, it’s not unreasonable for the general public to want to know if someone’s eye could have been poked out during the incident in question.
Yes scooter by all means, but putting that information in the body of the article would be more journalistically appropriate in my opinion as it could be construed as being biased based on the headline. Also, I am surprised that this article is missing the legal disclaimer “presumed innocent until proven guilty”.
Can we get any info on the race of the people involved?
Penal codes
Yes, a stiff penalty is in order. Maybe some hard time. Law enforcement needs to get a firm grip on this type of crime.
Once again showing that people are just crazy about sex, in its myriad permutations.
Talk about getting caught with your pants down… someone should have blistered his rear when they had the opertunity
Ewwww!!!!! Is all I’m going to say about this!!!
maybe he was just showing support for Harambe!
Shame
Hehe, Penal code, hehe.
I am the Great Cornholio!
Not good, but could be worse. They just discovered a body in a shallow grave next to a parking lot on Sonoma State’s campus recently. All kinds of freaks around the csu lately.
Couldn’t help himself?
Judge,I was crazy about her.
