Four UA students were arrested in connection with an assault that occurred at Presidential Village II. UA spokesperson Cathy Andreen said the assault was part of an ongoing dispute between a small group of students. An advisory was not sent because the assault was not a random attack, she said.
“Advisories are sent when there is possible imminent danger to other people and this was an ongoing dispute among these particular students,” she said. “There wasn’t a reason to send an advisory.”
Andreen said the University of Alabama Police Department is investigating the assault.
“UA is investigating the incident and will take appropriate action once that process is complete,” she said.
