This was sent to all the students in CPCC February 22nd:

From Security & Emergency Management:

This afternoon, at approximately 2:45 p.m. a student was the victim of an
attempted robbery in Student Parking Deck 2 on Central Campus. The student
was not injured and was able to get away from the suspect, who fled on foot.

At 3 p.m., a suspect fitting the same description robbed a student in
Student Parking Deck 3. The suspect showed a handgun and took a book bag
from the student, who was not injured in the incident.

CMPD and College Security are now interviewing a man believed to be the
suspect in both incidents. Witnesses described the suspect as a tall white
male, wearing all black clothing.

Officers are investigating both incidents. Anyone with information is asked
to contact CrimeStoppers at 704.334.1600 or College Security at 704.330.6632.

Please be assured that your safety is our officers’ top concern. They patrol our parking facilities on foot and bicycles, and in golf carts and marked patrol vehicles. It’s a vital part of our efforts to protect our students and employees, and to prevent crimes at all of our campuses.

Please contact the College’s security team at 704.330.6632 when you need:

assistance with a safety or security issue.
Please contact the College’s security team at 704.330.6911 when you need:

For your additional safety, there are emergency “blue light” phones stationed throughout the main areas of campus, including the main quad and the parking decks. Please use these in the event of an emergency as well; once the handset is picked up, you will automatically be connected to CPCC’s Security team.

Please utilize these security resources any time you need assistance and remember to stay alert to your surroundings; walk with a friend, if possible; and educate yourself on prevention tactics.

Here's how the conversation describing the suspect should go.... "He's the one laying over there with the fatal gunshot wounds", "probably won't harm anyone else "!

In the 2.5 years I've been at CPCC, I've seen possibly dozens of those emails.

It'd be really cool if I could, you know... be able to defend myself.
