It’s unclear how the man was able to enter the dorm room or the building. The victim was medically treated at the scene.
Students were alerted of the assault Friday morning and many said they now feel uneasy.
“They sent the police report saying a girl was assaulted while sleeping which is very frightening, especially for me as a young woman,” said Chantal de la Cruz, a UCLA student. “I’ve been living here for a year and the [crime] reports we usually get are burglary reports and they’re outside of the campus, so this is a huge shock for everybody. A lot of students don’t feel safe.”
Tips from UCLA police to stay safe on campus include:
- Always be alert and aware of your surroundings
- Report any suspicious activity to the police
- Do not leave doors to buildings propped open
- Secure your residence by locking all windows and doors
- Avoid poorly lit or deserted areas when walking at night
- Utilize the UCLA Safe Ride Service and UCPD CSO evening escorts
- Callin 911 for emergencies or UCLA PD’s 24-hour line at 310-825-1491
The incident remains under investigation.
Anyone with information on the case is urged to call UCLAPD at 310-825-1491. Anonymous tips can be provided by calling 310-794-5824.
A hit-and-run suspect was arrested after reportedly shooting at officers during a pursuit in Anaheim Friday.
The suspect was identified as Milton Urquiza Cruz, 31, of San Pedro, according to the Anaheim Police Department.
At around 3:45 p.m., an officer witnessed Cruz involved in a hit-and-run crash. As the officer tried to pull Cruz over, he refused to stop and sped away, leading police on a pursuit.
During the chase, Cruz struck a patrol vehicle and pointed a firearm at the officer who was following him, authorities said.
Officers opened fire on Cruz in the parking lot of a McDonald’s restaurant located in the 1100 block of North State College Boulevard.
Cruz was not hit and continued driving away. A second officer-involved shooting occurred on State College Boulevard near the 91 freeway.
The suspect was still not deterred and continued driving away until a PIT maneuver in the 2800 block of East Virginia Street finally stopped his vehicle.
Cruz was taken into custody at the scene. Neither the suspect nor any officers were struck by gunfire and a firearm was later recovered from Cruz’s vehicle, police said.
Cruz was arrested on multiple charges including:
- Assault on a peace officer
- Possession of a firearm by a felon or prohibited person
- Possession of ammunition by a felon or prohibited person
- Felony evading
- Misdemeanor hit-and-run
- Felony arrest warrant
The incident remains under investigation by homicide detectives. Following the investigation, the case “will be presented to the Orange County District Attorney’s Office to determine if the officers’ actions were lawful,” officials said.
