Campus Security & Public Safety

A student reported to Campus Security that he was the victim of an assault just north of campus earlier this morning (August 8) at about 1:00 AM.  The student reported that he was walking in the alley of the 200 block east between Mission and Augusta with a non-student when an individual or individuals knocked him to the ground and kicked him. The student was treated at a hospital for facial lacerations. The non-student was not injured.

The student was unable to provide any description of the individual(s), but was still encouraged to file a police report.

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.
