Burglar targeting women near U of A

There have been recent burglaries in the U of A area and authorities have reported that the burglar is targeting women who live along near the U of A area and is "sexually motivated."
The Tucson Police Department says the suspect is in his 20s and is probably conducting surveillance of the victims' homes prior to entering. The burglaries normally take place between midnight and 4 a.m.
For students who are the victims of these crimes or anyone who feels they need someone to talk with concerning these events – and any incident of sexual assault – there are many resources on campus that can help. A list of these resources, which include the OASIS Program Against Sexual Assault and Relationship Violence, Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS),the Dean of Students Office and the University of Arizona Police Department, can be found on the SafeCats Youtube channel at http://www.youtube.com/uasafecats#p/u/5/wepwbd0o-6Q.
A list of safety tips can also be found on the UAPD web site at http://www.uapd.arizona.edu/crime%20alerts.htm.
For further assistance, please call the Dean of Students Office (520) 621-7057.
