Subject: Armed robbery on campus Wednesday morning
      To: uwm-students@uwm.edu

A UWM student was not injured during an armed robbery that took place
on the west side of campus at 7:20 a.m. Wednesday, Feb. 21.

According to University Police reports, the student was walking between
the EMS and Physics buildings when he was approached from behind by a
man in his mid-20s. The man displayed a black handgun and demanded the
student’s wallet and cell phone. The student complied and the man ran
to a parked maroon or red Mercury station wagon, which he then drove south
on Cramer Street. The man was further described as wearing jeans and a
brown-and-gold jacket with the word *Ecko* written in a graffiti style
on the back.

University Police are investigating the case in cooperation with the
Milwaukee Police Department. Anyone with pertinent information is asked
to call University Police at 414-229-4627.
