Dear Campus Community,
At approximately 4 a.m. today two Salisbury University students near
Severn Hall were approached by three suspects displaying a weapon and
demanding money. Because these students made detailed observations of
their assailants and promptly reported the incident to University Police
on the campus emergency telephone system, University officers were able
to react immediately. A speedy apprehension was made by the Fruitland
Police assisted by the Wicomico County Sheriff’s Office.
Safety is Salisbury University’s paramount concern. University
Police has been working collaboratively with area police agencies to
increase the safety of our students and the local community. We ask
that you exercise caution when moving on and near campus both in daytime
and in evening hours. University Police offers an escort service at
night for students who feel particularly uncomfortable walking alone.
Students may access the Escort Service by calling ext. 3-6222.
We want to praise the students, University Police and their colleagues
in area agencies for their excellent work on this incident.
Dr. Ellen J. Neufeldt
Vice President of Student Affairs

ReplyDeletewait a minute there anon 2:51! i often enjoy a stroll around my neighborhood at 4 am! i live in the church street area and i've found that at 4 am it's very safe and scenic <-- that's sarcasm and i'm with you 100% there 2:51
ReplyDeleteThis reads exactly like the one you posted before. Are you sure you didn't repeat this, i.e., that it's "another" separate one from the one just a few days ago? These releases need dates on them. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteAnon 10:38 PM - It's not the same event. We are getting notices in email every week about security incidents on and around campus. I am a student and I agree with the 4 AM statements posted earlier but I worry about 9 PM too which is a valid time to be on campus but it's very dark then. I'll be glad when this holiday season is over!
