More Crime on the SU Campus

By Kaci Lindhorst

More crime to Syracuse University brings more fear to those living on campus and in the surrounding areas. There have been three robberies in the past five days according to the Department of Public Safety.

The last one occurred on Lancaster as a student was approached with a gun and asked to surrender his belongings. Chief Buske from the DPS says they are expanding their patrol area in order to protect more civilians.

More Than Just Robberies

This initiative was also fueled by the recent stabbing that occurred at the fraternity on campus Alpha Tao Omega. DPS says they are on high alert for crime on campus and have also increased the number of cars that are on duty.

Buske also said they will be reaching out to the nearby community to educate them on ways to protect themselves.
