Timely Alert About A Dangerous Situation: Robbery On Chestnut

There was an armed robbery at 41st and Chestnut, which obviously sucks, but at least DPS contacted everyone this time. According to the alert (which you should have now received via email and text): "Robbery by gun, 41 Chestnut, white male, 20’s, black hat & olive military coat, suspicious persons call 215-573-3333." Though that's a little far up, it's still definitely in campus range; if you're feeling unsafe, remember you can always call 898-WALK for an escort home.

Let us know if you saw anything and keep checking back for more info.

Update: the robbery happened at New Style Pizza. The DP has many more details here.
