For the third consecutive weekend, suites in Matthews Hall were burglarized, bringing the total to seven break-ins in less than three weeks.
However, this weekend's incidents marked both the first daylight robberies and also the first time suites below the fourth floor were targeted in the Yard dorm.
Two suites were robbed between 7 and 7:30 a.m. on Friday morning, and at least one other robbery was narrowly averted, witnesses said.
Daniela Lamas '03 left her room unlocked for about 10 minutes Friday morning.
During that time, her proctor noticed a man leaving Lamas' room.
The man, upon noticing the proctor, turned back into the room, and reportedly said, "See you later, guys," before taking off down the hallway.
Lamas noticed that that her wallet was missing Friday afternoon, but she thought she'd misplaced it.
She realized that it had been stolen when her proctor recounted the hallway encounter to Lamas Saturday morning.
