MADISON (WKOW) — More than two years ago, on Thursday July 6, 2006, UW Police responded to a 911 call from a campus emergency phone regarding an armed robbery.
The victim was a UW graduate student who was walking in the 1400 block of Observatory Drive when police say the male suspect hit him in the head with a pipe several times, knocking him to the ground. We’re told the suspect then took off with the victim’s wallet.
The victim was hospitalized, and his credit card was later used at several locations in Madison and Fitchburg by a female suspect, police say.
After DNA analysis, police arrested 24-year-old Otis Darnel Williams and his girlfriend 21-year-old Amanda Porrazzo. Police say neither has any affiliation with UW.
