There is a common trend to all these robberies. The first is that they happened around mid night or later. Second, they mostly happened to students traveling alone or in a group of two. Knowing these two key facts, it is easy to avoid being robbed.
Do not travel past midnight. Most universities have a shuttle service to take students back to the residences or to walk with them, know their number and use the service. Also, if you must travel, travel in groups of 3 or larger. A lot of times, robbers try to outnumber students, however they will be less inclined to rob a larger group. Lastly, if possible while traveling, remain in well lit and public areas.
