A Temple University student was attacked Sunday night by a group of males while walking near 18th and Norris streets, according to police.
The crime was caught on surveillance video and showed the student being followed by three males and then attacked.
Students say while they feel safe on campus, they have serious concerns when they venture off campus."It's so scary because it could be anybody. You never know. You feel so bad for the family," said sophomore Olivia Diedrich. A town hall was held on Monday evening to discuss safety and the ongoing violence near campus. Students left the meeting with mixed opinions over how receptive university leaders were.
