LBCC student Angel Gonzalez was aggressively confronted by another man after completing a class assignment with a group in the E-quad at LAC, around 2:44 p.m. on March 26.
According to Gonzalez, he sat on the concession bar stand and began talking with two other students when another man who had been working in the same space immediately cursed him out for being too close to his belongings and repeatedly screamed at him to move.
Threats were made to Gonzalez and was called numerous derogatory names.
Gonzalez then took his cell phone out and began to record the man.
The other man called 911, posing to be faculty and claiming his belongings had been tampered with and that Gonzales was instigating.
Two campus safety officers arrived and spoke with the originally at the concession bar and found out that he was a student.
The officers asked the man which classes he was enrolled in, the man stated that he studies online and was only on campus to complete a few tasks and that he called the police to de-escalate things.
The two officers who showed up on site saw no issue and left promptly.
