University Police reported Tuesday morning a male student was robbed Saturday night and later found unconscious by friends near his residence on Culbreth Road. He was bruised and disoriented, according to a police statement. Police did not elaborate on how he came to be unconscious.
The robbery took place at about 11:45 p.m. near 173 Culbreth Road when the victim was walking in the direction of his residence.
The victim, who could not identify or provide a description of the suspects in the case, said that some cash was stolen from him during the altercation.
Culbreth Road sees near-constant pedestrian traffic from students because of its proximity to the drama building, a parking garage and nearby fraternity houses that often throw parties on the weekends.
The police statement advised students to exercise caution and remain attentive to their surroundings when walking after nightfall.
University Police could not be reached for comment Tuesday.
