One student and one non-student were arrested for drug possession in two separate incidents on campus last Wednesday night.

Fairfield Police said officers responded after Public Safety located marijuana on both individuals: Michael Ignagni ’09 and Nicholas Gran.

Ignagni, a townhouse resident, was at a friend’s townhouse when Public Safety responded to a fire alarm at that location.

Public Safety reported the marijuana finding to the Fairfield Police, who then arrested Ignagni because he “had a plastic bag containing marijuana” around 10 p.m.

Police said they searched Ignagni’s residence after he told the police he “might have more” marijuana in his townhouse on the seven-block, but they did not find more in the house.

Non-student Gran, of Waterford, Conn., was charged with possession of marijuana and received a criminal trespassing warning after Public Safety officers found three Ziploc bags of marijuana on him at around 12 a.m.

Public Safety officers had responded to a marijuana odor on the fourth floor of Campion Hall, where Gran was hanging out, according to police.

Court dates for the two individuals were on Tuesday. At press time, results had not yet been released.
