Hello All, I don't normally send crime update messages to the general uc listservs, but thought this one was important enough. I will forward any other information I find out, as I think this particular crime is upsetting enough for us to try and keep grounded by the information as much as possible. Yours, Patty

Murray at 1:35 today - Disturbing attempted robbery at 45/Larchwood, ending in arrest To: "[email protected]" < [email protected]>, Gerry Davis <[email protected]>, "[email protected]" <[email protected]> Hello All, On a more serious note, I just read this tweet from Det. Murray. This is upsetting, to say the least. I am glad that he has been caught, and will be interested to know more as we can. Det. Murray just let me know that the police saw it while it was happening. SOO grateful for them being out on the street watching out for us! Not sure it if was undercover detail that caught him, but wouldn't be surprised. Praying for the recovery of the woman, and hoping we can lend our support in the courtroom and in any other way to her. If anyone knows her, please extend our support, sympathy, and prayers to her for us and let her know we will do our best to be in the courtroom with her. With an arrest, there is likely to be several sessions, especially if he has any other associated charges from other incidents. As always, please be alert at all times - even in this beautiful weather. Fortunately this particular person is now off the streets, but still, please be careful out there! Don't be distracted with your phone, texting or headphones, just to lessen the likelihood of being a target. NO victim-blaming, just another opportunity to say the same things again.... Yours, Patty at 1:35 today: @PPDJoeMurray: UCD cops just caught a guy robbing a woman at 45/Larchwood. He put a rope around her neck & tried to rob her before the cops grabbed him.
