An unidentified male attempted to steal two to three notebook computers from an office in the Student News Center this morning.
The man entered an office on the COM 2.5 level, rummaged through the office’s content and took off running with the stolen items.
A professor and a food court worker chased the man down. The man punched the food court worker in the stomach and continued running. He then hopped into a light blue Honda Accord.
The food court worker described the African-American man as approximately 5’10” tall, 160-175 pounds and athletically built. He was wearing a black t-shirt and shorts, and had no distinguishing tattoos or other markings.
The Ledger is waiting for more information from Campus Police. Updates will be added as they become available.
