Public Safety Alert: Twin Cities Campus

Mon, 14 Jun 2010
Minneapolis Police have issued a Crime Alert concerning a series of
incidents in southeast and south Minneapolis and are advising the
public to take extra caution to avoid danger. In the past three weeks,
a man fitting the same description has threatened or attacked three
women. The most recent attack was the most brazen and occurred just
off campus, close to the Argyle House and Dinnaken House student
residences (see map below). The details of the incidents include:


- At 4 a.m. on _June 11_ in the 400 block of SE. Erie Street, a man
spoke to a woman through a window and then broke-in. The victim fought
back and was able to get away. - Just before midnight on _June 7_ in the 800 block of River Mews Court, a man appeared at a woman's bedroom window and threatened her
with physical and sexual assault. He tried to enter the window, but
the victim ran and called 911. - At 5 a.m. on _May 31_ in the 5600 block of Nicollet Avenue S., the man cut a bedroom window screen and threatened a woman with both
physical harm and sexual assault. She left the room, and the suspect
did not enter the home. The suspect is described as a black male, approximately five feet,
eleven inches tall with a light or medium build. The suspect has
shoulder length hair in braids and is 18 to 30 years old.

The University of Minnesota Police Department, along with the
Minneapolis Police Department and the Minneapolis Park Police, all
have intensified patrols in areas where the suspect may be working or
living. Residents are encouraged to keep doors and windows locked, or
to secure windows so that they can open only partially.

Anyone with information regarding these crimes should call Sgt.
Blauert of the Minneapolis Police Department at 612-673-2913.
