WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Purdue University police are investigating a report of a man allegedly looking into a window on the women’s side of Harrison Residence Hall about 6:50 a.m. Monday (Sept. 15).
A witness reported to police that she was walking in the area and saw a man bent down outside the residence hall looking into a ground-floor room in which the lights were on and the blinds open. She told police that when the man saw her, he left the area and went into a nearby construction site.
The man was described as being white with long hair, possibly in a braid, and wearing a gray hooded sweatshirt, dark baseball cap and jeans.
Police urge students to keep the blinds closed in their rooms and promptly report any suspicious activity.
