UO Alert Eugene: Johnson Hall Break-In
Posted on by Molly Blancett

On Wednesday, Dec. 13, UOPD received reports of a break-in in the Garden Level of Johnson Hall. Staff reported damage and debris in some spaces. At 8:14 a.m., The Senior Vice President for Finance & Admin’s office sent a message to Johnson Hall staff notifying them to either secure in place or avoid coming to the building. At 8:50 a.m., UOPD gave staff the all-clear for the first and second floors but to continue avoiding the Garden Level. At 9:36 a.m., UOPD gave an all-clear for the Garden Level. CPFM responded with extra trash bins and custodial support. The suspect was arrested by UOPD the next day. There is no ongoing threat to 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. While this incident did not occur on the UO campus, the following suggestions may help reduce the possibility of experiencing such a crime or may improve opportunities to receive prompt assistance.

  • Contact UOPD immediately if you see potential evidence of criminal activity when entering your office.
  • Always be alert when traveling to, from, and around campus – especially early in the morning and late at night.
  • When walking at night, try to stay in well-lit areas. The UO provides an online map to help students navigate by the best-lit route around campus. The map also shows the approximately 60 emergency phones (e-phone or call boxes) that are located across campus.
  • When possible, carry a well-charged cell phone with emergency numbers pre-programmed.
  • Download the UO Mobile App for easy access to safety resources, safe ride options, and maps.
  • Duck Rides is the primary nighttime transportation services for students, staff and faculty at the UO. The service is free and peer-to-peer, with students driving students. It runs seven days a week, 6 p.m. to midnight. Call 541-346-7433 or email duckrides@uoregon.edu to make a reservation.
  • UOPD is available to provide free on-campus escorts if you are unable to find another shuttle, ride, or taxi: 541-346-2919 and press 1.
  • Communities are safest when members look out for each other: report any suspicious activity or unauthorized strangers immediately.
  • Report criminal activity (such as a break-in or intruder, robbery, or assault) immediately to 9-1-1, or for non-emergency situations on campus, to UOPD at 541-346-2919, press 0.
