By Morgan Lane, Editor-in-Chief

An individual was robbed and assaulted outside of The Residences at 10 West Burke Ave just after midnight on Thursday, according to a TU safety alert released at 2:44 a.m.

According to the recorded police dispatch call on the Crime Radar app, the victim advised officers that they were held at gunpoint with a handgun.

Both university police and Baltimore County police responded to the scene at around 12:23 a.m., where “three suspects robbed and assaulted the victim of personal property,” the campus safety alert statement said.

After the suspects allegedly assaulted the victim, they fled the scene in what is believed to be a black Toyota Camry, according to the campus safety alert.

“Enough is enough,” said university President Mark Ginsberg in a campus-wide email. “Acts like the one that occurred early this morning are attacks on our entire community, and they must stop.”

The university declined The Towerlight’s request for additional comment.

This is a developing story.
