After the spate of recent break-ins and burglaries in South Campus, a suspect was arrested by the Boston University Police Department and is currently awaiting arraignment. Students say these incidents reflect a deeper problem of on-campus security.
The Boston University Police Department arrested a suspect in connection with recent South Campus break-ins Friday night. The intruder is believed to be the same person who broke into South Campus residences at 96 Mountfort St. and 6 Buswell St. in February.
The solution to this is not as simple as instituting reforms and regulations for campus police. Municipal police officers are already limited by these regulations and accountability measures, and they are still brutalizing protestors and murdering Black people.
Boston University is halfway through this year’s two-part “Halloweekend” and BU officials said they want students to be safe and healthy during their celebrations.
