A woman who is an undergraduate at Boston University said that she was the victim of an unarmed robbery while walking down Garden Street at approximately 9:15 p.m. on Sunday, according to a community advisory sent by Harvard University Police Department yesterday.
The victim was traveling from the Radcliffe Quadrangle to Harvard Square when she was struck from behind by an assailant. The victim fell to the ground while the suspect fled the area after taking the woman’s iPod, digital camera, and wallet.
The victim, who was not seriously injured, could not provide HUPD with a description of the suspect. Since the incident occurred off of Harvard property, the Cambridge Police Department is investigating.
