The Charlottesville Police Department responded to a burglary in the 300 block of 14th Street NW at 4:17 a.m. Sunday morning, per a community alert sent by Timothy Longo, chief of the University Police Department and vice president for security and safety.
Three males entered an unlocked basement door in the residence and left, walking down Rugby Road and crossing the walking bridge over Emmett St. The suspects were not seen carrying weapons and nothing has been reported as stolen, per the alert.
The suspects were described as three males with light complexion, one of whom was possibly wearing a dark coat or hooded sweatshirt.
This is the first community alert since the semester started but the second of this month, following a robbery reported Jan. 14 in a 7-11 convenience store parking lot on Ivy Road.
“Community alerts” are shared with the University community when there is sufficient and timely information that can be released to the community without compromising any on-going investigations. “Timely warnings” are sent when a threat poses an “on-going threat” to the safety of the community.
The general public may opt-in to receive emergency alerts by texting “UVA” to 226787.
