ST. GEORGE — Two former Utah Tech University students were arrested Tuesday and Wednesday for investigation of distribution of pornographic material on the campus.
Utah Tech University Police Chief Ron Bridge said officers responded Tuesday to a report of individuals distributing "baseball card-sized" porn materials around hallways, stairs and other areas of the Jeffrey R. Holland Centennial Commons and Library building.
After an investigation involving video surveillance, which showed individuals between the ages of 18-20 distributing the materials, campus police were able to identify the two suspects, later identified as Paxten V. Prentice and Jamie B. Anderson, both of St. George.
Prentice was arrested late Tuesday night and Anderson turned himself in at the Utah Tech University Police Department Wednesday morning after hearing he was wanted by authorities.
