The student was approached by two men in their early 20s wearing dark clothing who ordered him to give them his money. They struck him on the head with a glass bottle, took an undisclosed amount of cash and then fled in an unknown direction. The student was treated at the Newark Emergency Center and released after receiving stitches in his head. He told investigating officers that he did not recall much of what happened. Anyone with information is asked to contact Det. Andrew Rubin at (302) 366-7110, ext. 135, or Delaware Crimestoppers at 1-800-TIP-3333, where information may be left anonymously. Students are cautioned about walking alone during late-night hours and should always be aware of their surroundings.
