Campus Security & Public Safety

A student reported being knocked down and punched while he was walking in the 500 block of East Augusta at about 11:45 PM on March 31. The student reported that words were exchanged with a white male, 18-20 years of age, with short dark hair and wearing a blue hoodie and jeans prior to the assault. The assailant was accompanied by four white females. All were 18-20 years of age and believed to be Gonzaga students. Spokane Police responded but the student declined charges. The student was treated for a small cut behind his ear.

Gonzaga community members are reminded of the following safety tips:

• If you have to walk, do so in groups especially after dark. Try to use well-lit, busy routes.

• Utilize Security escorts to travel across campus: 313-2222.

• Be aware of your surroundings.

• Report suspicious persons or circumstances immediately to GU Security (313-2222) or SPD (911).

• DO NOT confront persons who act or appear they may become threatening.
