Alleged attempted robbery occurs on campus

The news desk's Daphne Chen is reporting that two children were arrested last night after attempting to rob a Columbia student outside of Butler.

According to the student, a young male and female followed the student off of the M60 bus at 116th Street at around 8:30 p.m. The male attempted to take the student’s phone from his pocket in front of Butler Library, which was closed.

“They didn’t succeed, and I screamed ‘Help, help, help,'” he said.
