The University of Oregon Police Department has received information regarding two incidents near campus involving alleged felony crimes.

In one incident, a report alleged that a female UO student was drugged at the Delta Tau Delta fraternity, 1886 University Street, on May 10. Giving someone a drug to disable the person is aggravated assault, a felony crime. 

In a separate incident, the university learned that a woman not affiliated with the UO was allegedly sexually assaulted at an unknown location and time Friday evening May 16 or early Saturday May 17, and was later found disoriented on the south side of 18th Avenue near University Street early Saturday morning. Further details were not available.

Suspects have not been identified. These incidents are unresolved. Anyone with information about these or similar incidents should call Eugene Police at 541-682-5111 for off-campus incidents, or UOPD at 541-346-2919 for on-campus or UO-affiliated incidents. Updates regarding these incidents, when and if available, will be posted on the UOPD website at police.uoregon.edu.

CAMPUS SAFETY TIPS FROM UOPD

• No action or inaction by a crime survivor makes that person responsible for his or her victimization. Perpetrators are responsible for crimes and their effects. The following suggestions may help reduce the possibility of experiencing such a crime, or may improve opportunities to receive prompt assistance. 
• Don't touch people against their will, or without their consent (and incapacitated or unconscious people are not able to legally consent); this is a crime. Do not attempt to impair someone through intoxication or other means. Do not "spike" food or beverage in an attempt to impair someone; this is illegal.
• Keep your beverages in your control. Don't accept an open beverage from an unknown source, offered by a person that you do not trust.
• Look out for the well-being of friends who may be incapacitated. Don't leave an impaired friend alone, or with a stranger or untrusted acquaintance. If a friend needs medical help, call 9-1-1.
• Schedule a pickup from ASUO's Safe Ride (541-346-RIDE (7433) ext. 2) or the Designated Driver Shuttle (541-346-0442) or call a taxi. Don't drive or cycle while intoxicated, don't get into a vehicle with anyone who has been drinking, and don't let a friend do the same. Don't accept a ride from someone you don't trust.
• Encourage friends to travel in pairs or with trusted companions, especially at night or in remote areas. Be aware of surroundings, and attempt to keep a safe distance from strangers. Whenever possible, keep valuables secured and out of sight.
• If you feel you or others are in danger, call 9-1-1. To report suspicious, illegal or unusual activity on campus, call UOPD at 541-346-2919. Off-campus, call Eugene Police at 541-682-5111. For emergencies or if you see a crime being committed, call 9-1-1.
