4 Women Sexually Assaulted At SJSU Dorm

By Brock Keeling on Jan 27, 2012

At least four women were groped last night inside a dorm at San Jose State University "by a man who was roaming the building looking for unlocked doors." Though a keycard is needed to get entry, the suspect (described only as a Hispanic man in his 20s) somehow got in and wandered the halls checking doors until he found unlocked rooms. Ugh, what a pig.

"[T]he university plans to hold a meeting later Friday to review security procedures with the students, remind them to lock their doors, and to discuss what happened," notes SJ Mercury News. "University police are also reviewing surveillance video to determine whether the suspect was caught on camera. If he was, the police will likely show the photos around to the students."

Fortunately, a woman called police at around 3:30 am, prompting campus security to check the entire 10-story building. They were unable to make any arrests.

I don't want to make light of the content of the article, but the first line before the text wraps is "At least women were groped last night". Might want to put in that missing numeral.

that's what drew me here. i'm disappointed in the correction, to say the least.

That a creep was able to do this to a student isn't surprising, but to four? Why didn't the first one call the campus cops immediately, so the dude could've been cornered while prowling around?
