Campus Security & Public Safety

A Gonzaga student reported this afternoon that at 2:00 AM this morning (January 16) while walking alone in the 900 block of East Baldwin; he was knocked to the ground and was assaulted by two male subjects. The student reported his wallet and its contents as well his back pack were taken by the subjects.  They then fled on foot. The student contacted the Spokane Police Department (SPD) upon returning to his residence.  One of the subjects was described as a white male in his 20’s, wearing a camouflaged jacket. The only details on the second male the student could provide was that the male was a wearing a beige hoody.

Gonzaga community members are reminded of the following safety tips:
