A flood caused by a heating system “failure” forced the university IT services to shut down many essential systems on Sunday night, causing problems for many students on the eve of their exams and assignment due-dates.
The attack took place on Wednesday, 10th October at 3AM. One student was left with a cut to the hand while another had his wallet stolen. The attacker initially wore a balaclava but took it off during the attack, which allowed one of the students to provide the police with a description.
Earlier that night, two men also wearing balaclavas robbed a 19-year old male of his wallet and phone. The police believe that the two attacks may be connected.
The perpetrator of the later attack is described as white, 16 to 20 years old, about 5ft 9in tall and of skinny build, with blond hair and a very pale complexion.
