Life Sciences Annex Bike Racks

September 15, 2006

On Thursday, September 14, 2006 at about 10:10 PM, UCPD received a call concerning a robbery, which had occurred approximately 15 minutes earlier at the southwest side of LSA at the bike racks. The victim, a White 19 year old male student, was unlocking his bike when he observed 3 Black males walking towards him.  Two of the males grabbed him, one on each arm.  They held him and searched his back pockets while the third male searched his front pockets.  They took the victim’s personnel property and then released him unharmed.  The suspects left the scene walking northwest between the Grove and LSA.  The victim returned to his residence and phoned UCPD.  UCPD searched the area but did not locate the suspects. 

The victim described the suspects as:

Suspects #1, 2 & 3 –Black Males, in their late teens, 5’7 to 5’10”, thin to medium builds.  One suspect was wearing a dark baseball cap; the other two had black 2” natural hair styles.  One of the suspects had a silver dental “grill”.
