On Friday, April 25 the Union Client Services reported a possible retail theft from the food court area. Theft totaled $3.50. The female suspect had already left the building prior to the call to the police, and was thought to have gone into a nearby alley. The previous day the same female walked away from the food court area with two square banana cakes ($1 each) and a Fugi bottled water without paying. Police were not called at that time.

On Sunday April 27 a strong armed robbery occurred on the 2900 block of North Oakland Ave. around 9:45 p.m. A Safe Walker was waved down by the female victim who stated that she had been struck by a rock by an unknown male suspect. The suspect took her purse and fled south on Oakland. The case was turned over to the Milwaukee Police Department and a campus-wide e-mail was issued.

A theft of a wallet was reported April 30 from an unlocked office on the fourth floor of the Chemistry Building. Victim stated that she thinks the theft occurred on the 28th of April.
