November 7, 2013 (San Diego) – Tuesday morning, in response to recent crime alert bulletins, SDSU Police received a call from a student reporting a male subject was asking to use his cell phone at the intersection of Campanile Drive and Montezuma Road.

The student refused to give him his phone and called police.  Officers later arrested the subject on unrelated felony charges.  The suspect’s connection to prior cell phone theft cases is currently under investigation.

As a reminder, be cautious if someone asks to use your cell phone.  If they insist it is an emergency, dial 911 for them.  Do not allow a stranger to use your cell phone and immediately report suspicious activity to police.
