At 5:00 AM this morning, Campus Security was advised of a student who had entered another student’s room at Marian Hall and reported that he had been assaulted. The student reported he was somewhere between the 1300 block of North Hamilton and the intersection of Columbus & Boone sometime between 1:00 AM-5:00 AM when 3 dark-skinned males punched him twice. The student reported he fell asleep somewhere “in the street” after being struck and when he woke up his wallet and phone were missing. The student had minor injuries consistent with being in a fight. The student was unable to provide more accurate details of the event or where he had been during the evening. Spokane Police and Gonzaga Security are investigating.
