Student robbed at gunpoint

on campus Wednesday morning As the student walked east on Spruce Street, a white, four-door car slowed next to her. When the driver asked her for directions, the student approached the car. The driver opened the door, pointed a gun at the student and told her to give him her wallet, Richardson said. The student gave the gunman her wallet and $5, he added. Wednesday's robbery brings the total number of incidents on campus since the beginning of September to 35. -- Ben Hammer
