From Checkpoint, 5:08 pm today

Several young women needed medical treatment after being hit by flying bottles on St Patrick's Day and police are pushing for a ban on the sale of alcohol in glass bottles at liquor stores in the student quarter. An investigation is also underway into the burning of a wallaby and several other deliberately lit fires. Senior Sergant Anthony Bond decribed to Lisa Owen the marathon of student drinking that kicked off well before dawn.
