After months of very few major crimes against Drexel students, especially robberies of any kind, there have been four robberies using firearms in the last two weeks, according to the DPS Crime Logs online.

Here are the following crimes

• Friday, May 2nd, at 3:01 a.m. - Robbery with firearm at 36th and Spring Garden Street - Pending Investigation
• Monday, May 5th, at 10:43 p.m. - Robbery with firearm at 36th and Chestnut Street - Closed
• Thursday, May 9th at 11:29 p.m. - Robbery with firearm at 33rd and Spring Garden Street - Pending Investigation
• Sunday, May 11th at 10:22 p.m. - Robbery with firearm at 33rd and Powelton Avenue - Pending Investigation

Be very careful at night, and don’t walk alone if you can help it. Here is The Triangle’s Crime Log report from last week for the first and second robberies. In the second one, it should be noted that two of the suspects were later arrested:

A student reported to DPS and PPD that he had been robbed at gunpoint. The student said that he was approached by three black males who displayed two handguns and demanded money. The group took $130 and fled in an unknown vehicle. The suspects are described as black males 16 to 17 years old, apporximately 5-foot-8.

A student reported to DPS and Penn Police that he had been robbed at gunpoint by 10 to 12 black males. The suspects took $50 and fled on foot toward Sansom Street.

Tune into The Triangle’s crime log this week to learn more about the details of the third and fourth robberies.

UPDATE: DPS has provided alerts on its website detailing these four crimes for students to review. For fourth robbery at 33rd and Powelton, PPD was able to detain a suspect matching the description given, but the two students robbed were unable to identify him.
