Armed robbery at Wilson House

A student was robbed at gunpoint in Wilson House by three males near midnight Monday night, Tufts University Police Department (TUPD) reported last night.

TUPD issued a safety alert around campus last night to warn students of the crime.

According to TUPD, no one was harmed in the incident.

The suspects left the dorm room carrying a black trunk with a combination lock.

The there suspects were reported to be roughly 5'9" and were all wearing hats and hoods. One of the suspects was described as white with tanned skin and dark facial hair.

TUPD Sergeant Christopher McGee said last night that the incident is currently under investigation and that he could not comment any further until the officers heading the investigation, Detective Charles Lonero and Captain Mark Keith, returned.

Neither officer was available by press time.

This is the second gun-related robbery in three years on the Medford campus. In the fall of 2001, four South Hall residents reported being robbed at gunpoint. The assailants were never found.
