This office has become aware of an alarming increase in incidents involving the "snatching" of cell phones and ipods on or near public transportation facilities. A number of these thefts have been reported to us by members of the Brooklyn College Community.
Persons while travelling to and from the campus should, if at all possible,avoid talking on cell phones and avoid wearing ear buds since it appears perpetrators target those individuals.
Be aware of your surroundings at all times and keep electronic devices out of sight.
