The burglaries occurred in the faculty and staff offices in Gerlinger, Lawrence and Willamette halls, where computers and other electronic devices were reported stolen on April 26 and May 23.

The incidents happened at approximately 6 p.m. and midnight. With the help of an employee from Columbia Hall who said they saw a suspicious man at those hours, the UOPD has been able to release a sketch of the suspect.

The witness described the man as 150 pounds who is in his 20s or 30s and is white with a gaunt face and rosy cheeks.

The UOPD is currently investigating the crimes, and warns UO staff and students to be extra careful with all of their electronic devices and to make sure all devices are properly protected.

The UOPD has asked that if anyone has seen any suspicious activity on campus, or needs to report a similar incident to call (541) 346-2919.
