Levin said he then sneaked down the hallway and surprised the robber with his dart gun.
"Who are you? Who sent you to kill me?" Levin said he screamed at the man.
At that point, Levin said, the man became very flustered and started muttering about coming to get something from "Mr. Abelson,"--another student on the floor who's name is posted on one of the hallway's doors.
Then Levin said he yelled at him, "Who the hell are you?"
According to Levin, the intruder apologized and fled the area.
Levin and his suitemates contacted the House's superintendent when they realized two laptops and a wallet were missing from their suite. The superintendent contacted HUPD.
McNamara yesterday refused to release the suspect's name, saying it might jeopardize HUPD's investigation. She confirmed, however, that he had no Harvard affiliation.
