The cameras were rolling on Feb. 16
when senior Kevin Ware stepped out of a
crush party at Lighthouse Tavern, hosted
by the Alpha Xi Delta [AZD] sorority.
Cameramen from Greensboro’s
WFMY, who were doing a ride along with
Elon Police and Alcohol Law
Enforcement [ALE] that night, caught
incriminating footage of Ware and other
Elon students that night, which they aired
in a news package on college drinking
Wednesday, Feb. 28.
Ware, who is AZD’s “sweetheart,”
caused a commotion in the bar by pointing^
out an ALE agent. Arrest records shqj
that Ware got other students in the'Bar to
surround the agent and shout profanities.
He was charged with inciting a riot.
Police allege that Ware managed to
escape the police cruiser, but tripped and
fell. He was again apprehended by police
and further charged with resisiting arrest.
“It’s not unusual for us to make a couple of
arrests or so in a business, especially when it’s
crowded,” ALE supervisor Mike Yates said.
