At 4:24 p.m. Nov. 22, police were called after residents in the 800 block of Duryea Place witnessed two males asking students for money.
Police were called again when the two men entered the lobby of Wyckoff Hall.
Officers responded immediately and they observed the two men talking to a student, who seemed disturbed.
Both men told police they were asking for money for a bus ticket.

Both were arrested, transported to Peoria County Jail and banned from university property.
At 6:04 a.m. Nov. 23, police were called to the intersection of Main and University streets on the complaint of a robbery.

The victim did not see the license plate. The case is being investigated.
At 12:30 a.m. Monday, officers were dispatched to the 1000 block of St. James Street in reference to a male urinating in a hallway.
