That’s according to a new report out of Southwest Florida’s WINKTV, which conducted an exclusive interview with Arciszewski’s father, Gary Arciszewski Tuesday evening.

Scott Arciszewski’s father told the station authorities released him and allowed him to go back to his dorm room, which houses mostly UCF athletes and honor students, so he could prepare for an exam today.

Gary Arciszewski didn’t even know about his son’s arrest until a reporter from the station knocked on his door and told him.

“The kid hasn’t called me, nobody has called us, no one has told us. We’re in the dark until we find out what is going on,” Gary Arciszewski told WINK.

Scott Arciszewski’s mother told the station she got a hold of her son on Facebook, who told her he was in the UCF library studying for his Wednesday exam.
