At about 1 a.m. Sunday morning, Mark E. Lee '01-'02 woke to cries of "Anyone home?" and loud banging on the door of his suite in Quincy House.

"I thought maybe it was just someone fooling around," Lee said.

But when Lee got up from bed to investigate, he discovered three unknown males, one rummaging through his roommate's belongings.

"I got up and noticed that there was movement in my roommate's room," Lee said. "I realized that it was a complete stranger taking [his jewelry] chains and headphones."

Lee yelled at the individual, a 16 to 17-year-old black male, about five feet, eight inches in height with a medium build. The intruder was wearing a red knit winter hat, a dark, puffy winter jacket and jeans, Lee said.

Surprised by Lee's appearance, the trespasser fled the bedroom, and Lee chased him downstairs to the common room.

"I noticed there were two other people in the common room and the three of them took off down the hallway as fast they could," Lee said.

Lee was not able to get a good look at the two intruders, but described them as black males wearing winter jackets.
