A near campus robbery incident, involving a 20 year old male student, occurred at
10:50pm on March 27th, near Second and Prentis. The student reports he was approached by
two subjects on bikes who demanded his money. The student surrendered his wallet to one
subject who looked through it and gave it back when he found no money inside it. The
subject then demanded the students cell phone, which was surrendered to the two subjects
who then rode off. The uninjured student called 911 and was told to go to the DPD Central
District to report the crime. The student decided not to go to the Central District and
apparently went home.
At approximately 11:30pm a friend of the victim told him that he believed the two subjects
who robbed him were back in the area of Second and Prentis. WSUPD was then notified and
four scout cars were immediately dispatched. However, an area search failed to locate
anyone matching the description of the two subjects on bikes. TIP: NEVER call 911 for any
Police, Fire or Medical Emergency. Always call WSUPD Dispatch (313-577-2222) for immediate
response and assistance.
