CORVALLIS, Ore. (AP) — Corvallis police arrested five Oregon State University fraternity members caught cutting down a Christmas tree.
Patrol officers noticed men running and hiding Sunday night outside a Corvallis School District building, the Harding Center.
Sgt. Jef Van Arsdall told the Corvallis Gazette-Times (http://is.gd/WhfIF3) the men admitted cutting down a 20-foot blue spruce and said they planned to use it as the Christmas tree at the Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity.
They’re facing criminal mischief charges.
