Two Trumbull men were arrested after midnight Friday for allegedly trespassing on grounds after being warned not to return, police said.

Jared Koenig, 21, was charged with first-degree criminal trespass; Nicholas Marble, 19, was charged with first-degree criminal trespass and possession of less than half an ounce of marijuana after some of the substance was found on his person, department spokesperson Sgt. Sue Lussier said.

The two -- who are not Fairfield University Students -- were warned earlier in the evening not to return to campus, police said. School security said the two men had not signed in as guests at the front desk, which is school policy.

Marble and Koening told police they had left belongings in a friends dorm and went back to get them, Lussier said.

Both were released on a promise to appear in court on Feb. 14.
