OU Student Charged with Stealing from University

Norman, OK - A student at the University of Oklahoma has been charged with stealing an expensive piece of video equipment from the university.

According to court records, on February 10, Kevin Troung Ha, 30, walked into the Oklahoma Memorial Union and walked out with a "data projector and case" valued at $950.

Allegedly, Ha was seen on a security camera walking into the building and then exiting the same building with the video projector.

Police utilized a confidential informant to positively identify Ha as the person on the tape.

Two days later police attempted to contact Ha via telephone, but could not reach him.

On February 14, the projector was left outside the 2nd floor entrance to the Union building.

Police again tried to contact Ha and left him a voice message that they still needed to talk to him even though the projector had been returned. Minutes later an attorney called police and told them Ha would not speak to them without his attorney present.

Yesterday (4/3), a single felony charge for grand larceny was filed in Cleveland County against Ha.

A warrant has also been issued for Ha's arrest.

Ha is listed as a senior at the University of Oklahoma in the College of Arts and Sciences.

Ha's home address is listed in the 900 block of NW 28th street.
