UNA Police responded to a call around 3:45 a.m Tuesday after two UNA students discovered a skateboarder who wrecked into the Harrison Plaza fountain and sustained serious head injuries.

According to UNA police Chief Bob Pastula, the student was allegedly under the influence of alcohol at the time of the accident and was rushed to ECM hospital in Florence. After being cared for at ECM, the injured student was transferred to a Birmingham hospital.

“He was skateboarding where he shouldn’t be and we have rules against that at UNA,” Pastula said.

UNA has regulations set aside against skateboarding and rollerblading on campus, and has notices posted around the campus.
