SETTING THE RECORD STRAIGHT: I am the property manager at Sturbridge Square Apartments where Mr. Zhu resided.
#1. We spoke to the police about Mr. Zhu, AND HIS ROOMMATES, refusal to turn on the heat in there residence, after busted pipes occured on numerous occassions. We opted to contact the police to find out if we had any recourse, such as destruction to property, to force ALL the residents living in the townhome to maintain the heat at 68 degrees. It was not because Mr. Zhu was exhibiting any behavior that would lead us to believe he was a danger to himself or others.
#2. International Affairs was contacted regarding this same issue.
#3. Yes, Mr. Zhu accused staff of stealing a pair of his shoes. Odd, but not anything that would make one question a person\'s sanity. Mr. Zhu, AND HIS ROOMMATES, were belligerent regarding the heat/busted pipes issue. Why they did not want the heat on, I do not know. I do NOT want anyone to have the impression that Sturbridge Square reported Mr. Zhu to any government/university offices as being unstable or a threat to the community and that officials turned a deaf ear. This could not be further from the truth. The issues Sturbridge Square faced with Mr. Zhu, AND HIS ROOMMATES, was nothing more than a resident not following their leasing agreement. Blacksburg has the finest police department and university officials, who place the safety of this community, and its students, as its highest priority.
