Central Connecticut State University police are increasing patrols after a reported assault near campus early Saturday morning.
Police say a female non-CCSU student was in the area of Biltmore and East Streets when she was approached by two males and assaulted. The suspects are described as wearing dark clothing and having dark hair.
Anyone with information is encouraged to contact Lt. Edward Dercole at 860 832 2394, Det. Densil Samuda at 860 832 2381, or CCSU police dispatch at 860 832 2375. New Britain Police have taken over the investigation.
Students say they think the increased patrols are the right call.
"I think it's a good thing, especially if they're looking around those side streets around those areas because that's where I would expect something like that to happen," CCSU senior Taylor Lewis.
Students were reminded to use caution when walking alone and report any suspicious activity immediately.
