UW-Madison Police Arrest 2 In Campus Robbery

MADISON, Wis. — University of Wisconsin-Madison police said they arrested two suspects Monday in connection with the robbery of a graduate student on campus more than two years ago.

Authorities said that a 31-year-old graduate student was walking in the 1400 block of Observatory Drive on July 6 when a man wielding a pipe struck him in the head several times, knocking him to the ground. After a short struggle, police said the attacker fled with the victim’s wallet.
