On June 27th, 2006 a female student near Education Drive was exiting her
vehicle when two individuals approached her and one grabbed her purse and
attempted to take it.  The victim of the crime resisted and threw hot coffee
into the face of one of the suspects.  Both suspects fled on foot without
getting any property, and the victim was un injured.  

The suspects are described as two black males in their late teens or early
twenties, slender with short hair, and both wearing black T-shirts with some
sort of design or writing on the front, and black shorts.  The suspect who
grabbed her purse was around 5 foot 7 inches tall and had a black shirt or
cloth of some kind wrapped around his hand.  The other suspect was around 6
foot in height.

*        Report suspicious persons immediately, and remain in your vehicle
or home until police arrive.  

*        Travel in groups whenever possible and avoid entering deserted
areas.  

*        If you are the victim of a robbery follow the instructions of the
robber. 

o       Do not argue or attempt to fight with your assailant. 

o       Try to remember what the robber looks like, what he/she was wearing
and call the police as quickly as possible.
