Campus Safety Services issued a TU Advisory this evening to warn students that a 19-year-old female non-Temple-student was robbed and assaulted by an unknown male after midnight last night on the 1600 block of Fontain Street. Fontain is located between Diamond and Norris, 16th and 17th streets.

The Advisory reads:

“Police said the 19-year-old female was on the 1600 block of Fontain Street after midnight Wednesday, Oct. 14, when she was approached by a man who said he had a weapon. After forcing her into a vacant lot where the two struggled, the woman fought him off. He got away with a small amount of money. The woman reported being groped, but not otherwise harmed.”

CSS also urged students to utilize the TUrDoor service or OwlLoop shuttle when traveling late at night.
