The Indiana University Police Department received two reports of burglaries, one at Wright Education Building and the other at Ballantine Hall, which allegedly occurred Saturday. 

According to a crime notice released Monday, three “possible juvenile males” were seen on camera footage entering Wright around 8:20 p.m. Saturday and Ballantine around 9:22 p.m.  

The crime notice said the group caused property damage and took items from both buildings, though it did not specify what items were taken. 

The three suspects, captured in camera footage. One was described as a white male with a slender build and brown curly hair in a red Indiana hoodie and jeans, another as a white male with a small build, gray sweatpants and a tan-and-black flannel, and the third a white male with a larger build in a tan hoodie and black gym shorts.  

IUPD recommends locking doors and windows, protecting keys, storing valuables out of plain sight and ensuring doors to locked buildings are fully closed if one is the last to leave a building. 

The notice encouraged anyone with information on the crimes or any other crime to call IUPD at 812-855-4111 or Crime Stoppers at 317-262-8477.
