Department of Security >>Purse and Jewelry Snatching On September 18th, 2001, the School of Medicine's Department of Security warned Medical School employees of three reported incidences of purses or jewelry being snatched from employees during the previous week. Employees were asked to take extra precautions and to report any suspicious behavior.
On
Wednesday, September 19th the
suspect
believed to be the culprit was detained by University of
Miami undercover security officers and subsequently arrested
by Miami Police Robbery detectives.
Although
this individual was stopped quickly, employees are asked to
always take extra precautions to be aware of their
surroundings; to hang on securely to purses, briefcases, and
bags; and to avoid wearing or displaying expensive jewelry.
Anyone
who witnesses or falls victim to these type of incidences
should always contact Security immediately at 243-6000. For more information on what you can do to ensure your personal safety, please visit the Department of Security's Personal Safety web page.
