A 31-year-old UW-Madison graduate student was roughed up and robbed by a pipe- wielding man and a possible accomplice early Thursday on campus.
UW-Madison Police responded to a 911 call about 12:45 a.m. from the victim, whose name was withheld. He told police he was walking in the 1400 block of Observatory Drive when he was hit in the back of the head and knocked to the ground. After a short struggle, the attacker fled with the student’s wallet.
