The victim was walking his dog on the south side of Alumni House, when he reached Spieker Plaza at Haas Pavilion he heard someone behind him yelling profanities at him. The victim told the two suspects that he did not want any trouble. They responded by telling him that they were going to cause him bodily harm. The two suspects appeared angry and one threatened him by raising an umbrella as if he were going to use it as a weapon.
