Synopsis: Protective Services officers responded to the outside of EPNEC for a report of a subject who assaulted a Washington University student. The subject was determined to be the same subject who was nude and trespassing in the Northwest Tower under Incident No. 2303-00135. During this incident, the subject entered the first floor of EPNEC and appeared to be lost. A WUSM employee asked the subject if he needed assistance. He grabbed the employee's breast until she yelled at him to stop. He approached another WUSM employee and engaged in the same behavior. He then left out of the front doors. A student was walking past EPNEC and the subject blocked her path, picked her up, and tried to walk away with her. The student screamed for help. Several people in the area intervened, causing the subject to release the student. The bystanders contained the subject until Protective Services arrived and took him into custody. The SLMPD was called to campus and an officer transported the subject to the Barnes-Jewish Hospital Emergency Department.
Disposition: Subject Identified. Referred to the SLMPD.
