A total of nine burglaries occurred the first weekend in October in the Phase III apartments of Prairie View A&M University’s Village North.
According to Lt. David Webb of the university police department, the break-ins happened during the evening from Friday to Saturday, although the authorities were first notified Oct. 4. Stolen items included electronics such as televisions, laptops, digital cameras, clothing, and gaming consoles.
The break-ins were closely related, all occurring during the weekend of the Prairie View vs. Grambling football game in Dallas. Webb said burglaries normally happen in Phase I and II, and while officers were targeting that area, Phase III was burglarized.
To ensure security and safety on campus, campus police have devised new tactics to make sure this problem never happens again.
