An employee of the Hulman Memorial Student Union was arrested Thursday for public intoxication.

Brooks A. Wilson, an events setup technician for HMSU operations, was arrested Thursday after  officers received a complaint of a possible intoxicated employee at HMSU.

According to an Indiana State University police report, an employee contacted police after she believed Wilson had been coming to work smelling like alcohol and possibly drinking while on his breaks.

Officers located Wilson on the seventh floor of HMSU and could immediately smell the odor of alcohol coming from Wilson. Wilson agreed to take a portable breathalyzer test, which resulted in a blood alcohol content of 0.19, according to the report.

Wilson was transported to the Vigo County Jail on charges of public intoxication and was slated to appear in Terre Haute City Court last Friday.

ISU officials declined comment due to personnel issue.
