Five reported sexual assaults put UO's first week on alert
Four reports involved UO students; the university says support is available around the clock and the incidents are not believed to be related.
University of Oregon students began fall classes Monday. By Wednesday afternoon, the university had warned the campus about five reported sexual assaults on or near campus during the preceding week. Four reports involved UO students. The fifth occurred near Alton Baker Dog Park, and police arrested a person in that case. Officials said the incidents are not believed to be connected and released no victim details while the investigations continue.
For confidential support, students can call the university's 24-hour SAFE hotline at 541-346-7233. UO's Care and Advocacy Program can help students understand medical, legal, university and law-enforcement options without taking control of the decision. University medical providers offer care, emergency contraception, lab work and evidence-collection exams at no charge to students. Information that could help the current investigations can be shared with UOPD at 541-346-2919.
