Timely Warning: Off-Campus Assault

Friday, April 25, 2008

Toledo Police are currently investigating an assault that occurred off campus Friday morning. According to police reports, around 5:30 a.m. Friday, April 25, 2008, a male UT student was walking through a parking lot at Campus Village apartments when he was attacked by a group of four black males. The suspects, two of whom were wearing New York Yankees hats, struck the victim from behind, and proceeded to beat him, knocking him to the ground. The victim was able to escape and ran across Secor Road towards Main Campus. The suspects fled the area in an unknown vehicle. The victim was treated and released from the University of Toledo Medical Center.

UT police and city police are working to increase patrols in the neighborhoods around campus. This is in addition to the UTPD-TPD Team Policing unit that is already assigned to the areas around main campus. UT police would like to encourage all members of the campus community to review the following tips that can help lessen your chances of being a victim of crime:

  • Walking to and from class, or other destinations: Do not walk alone. Use the buddy system. Stay in well lit areas as much as possible. Look aware and be aware of your surroundings; having headphones on or chatting on a cell phone may give the appearance you are less aware. Avoid wearing expensive jewelry. Robbers look for people who appear to have lots of cash. Keep cash in small amounts in different pockets.

  • In your apartment or home: Keep your doors and windows locked and do not open them to
    strangers. Watch for anyone who may have followed you home. Keep your front entrance well lit and visible from inside your house.

  • When traveling in your car: Keep your doors locked, windows rolled up, and your car in gear. If your car is approached while you are stopped, try to safely drive away. Be aware whether you are being followed. If you are being followed, drive to a well lit public area and ask for help.

Most importantly, be a responsible member of the community. If you see someone suspicious, or have information on this or any other crime, please report it to the police:

Toledo Police Crime Stoppers (for tips about this assault): 419-255-1111
University of Toledo Police: 419-530-2600

Remember: See it, hear it, report it! If you have any information on the incident please contact UTPD at 419.530.2600 or report anonymously online at police.utoledo.edu.
