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.

Lauren Seeliger and Brandon Kile, two third-year Cavalier Daily News writers, discuss the impact of the student housing frenzy on both University students and the Charlottesville community.
