Campus Community,
Early this morning, one of our students reported an attempted abduction in the Cokesbury Court Apartments parking lot. We are very thankful that our student was not harmed during this incident.
Our Police Department immediately stepped up patrols in the area and we are continuing to do so today. We are also working with the Oklahoma City Police Department on the investigation.
OCU Police utilized the university’s Blue Alert emergency notification system to alert the campus community of the incident. Since the alert, some students have been using the police department escort service. Police escorts are available to students, faculty and staff around the clock by calling 405-208-5001.
The suspect is described as a black male, 6-foot-tall, medium build, and wearing black and green sweatpants. He was driving a 4-door black hatchback. Please report any suspicious activity to the OCU Police Department at 405-208-5911.
The safety of our campus community is our top priority at Oklahoma City University.
