A 71-year-old Gainesville man was banned from campus Wednesday after he poked a 21-year-old female UF student in the butt three times at Library West, according to the University Police Department.
Marion Danzy allegedly poked the student three times in the span of about a minute and then left the library, at which point the student contacted library security, according to police.
The incident occurred around 7:30 p.m.
An officer caught up with Danzy minutes later outside the library, where he was identified by the student and banned from campus for three years. Danzy spoke poor English and might have been homeless, said UPD Officer Chris McIlrath.
The student declined to press charges, so UPD will not forward the case to the state attorney's office. No other students reported being touched by Danzy.
