The man then walked down the street and turned the corner. The staff member then saw him walk back in the opposite direction. He confronted the man about the location of his vehicle, and the man told him he had decided to go to the gas station instead. The staff member demanded his money back, but was refused. The man had given his real name, and when the police learned it they discovered this man had been caught before for the same offense. Elliot Davis frequently preys on staff members, but sometimes students as well. He asks for money, but leaves his name and some sort of collateral so the victim believes he will come pay them back. He is also well dressed and articulate. Police are seeking him for questioning.

He accused them of breaking his bong, and when they denied it, he struck them. The officer talked to the 18-year-old resident, who admitted throwing a party that served alcohol to minors and “pushing” the two girls in question.
