During the early morning hours of Sunday, March 22, 2009, a female student was returning to her room after visiting friends when she was assaulted in Holloway Hall. The attack took place in the hallway in front of her room. Her quick thinking and decisive actions enabled her to push the attacker out of her room and secure the door, keeping him from entering.
The attacker was described as a white male, approximately 20 years old, with black spiky hair, wearing a black button down shirt and blue jeans. If you have any information concerning this case, please contact the Department of Public Safety at (973)408-3379. All calls will be kept confidential.
The victim in this case had not been drinking, nor was she doing anything out of the ordinary. Unfortunately, this case points out the dangers we all live with today. Please be alert, walk with friends, keep your doors locked and do not key anyone into your residence halls. Safety is everyone's responsibility.
