Visitor to GU Reports Assault
Gonzaga Security received a report at 11:32 PM last night (8/28/09) that a non-student who was visiting a student at Gonzaga was knocked to the ground by two persons at about 9:45 PM. She reported that one of the subjects put a hand over her mouth, but she was able to get away and run to campus where she located her student friend. She said she was not injured except for some minor scrapes. The visitor was not sure exactly where this assault occurred, or even whether it was on or off the campus. She was not able to describe the two persons or what clothing they wore. She did not contact police or Campus Security at the time of the incident. Spokane Police were advised later. The incident remains under investigation. Both Campus Security and Spokane Police will be patrolling the campus and adjacent area.
