Re: Cyclist Robbed At Gunpoint On UT Campus

Here's the 411 from UT Campus Watch email list:

1900 BLOCK SAN JACINTO BLVD.

Aggravated Robbery / Possession of a Controlled Substance / Possession of a Dangerous Drug: A UT staff member was stopped while riding his bike by a non-UT subject driving a dark colored Jeep.  The subject asked the staff member for directions, then pulled a realistic replica of a semi-automatic pistol and pointed it at the staff member.  The suspect then demanded all of the staff member's money.  The staff member rode away quickly and notified the UT Police Department.  The responding officers quickly located the suspect two blocks away.  During the investigation, the officers located the weapon inside the vehicle and took the suspect into custody for Aggravated Robbery.  Officers also discovered the suspect was in possession of not only a controlled substance, but was also in possession of a dangerous drug.  The officers transported the suspect to Central Booking Additional charges for Possession of a Controlled Substance / Possession of a Dangerous Drug were filed.  Occurred on: 3-12-12, at 7:07 AM.
