Man Tries Kidnapping Woman at Pegasus Landing near UCF
Crime, News, Safety — By Staff on August 28, 2010 at 7:37 pmA man grabbed a woman from behind and tried dragging her into a hallway just before midnight Friday at the Pegasus Landing apartments which were officially affiliated with UCF until just a few months ago, according to a UCF police alert.
The woman who was attacked is not a UCF student, but many UCF students still live there. It’s not clear whether the victim is a student at a local community college.
The suspect was 5′ 7″ or taller with dark or tan skin tone and was dressed in all black or blue clothing and a dark hoodie, the police alert stated. No other description is available at this time.
UCF police still patrol the complex, and will step up patrols both on campus and at the Pegasus Landing and Pegasus Pointe Apartment complexes. UCF police alerted law enforcement in Seminole and Orange counties.
Anyone that has any information about this crime can call Crimeline at 407-423-TIPS or the University Police Department at 407-823-5555.

These incidents are so common, it’s disturbing. Every time I start feeling safe, something comes up to make me paranoid again.
Also, not to nitpick, but who are the journalists for knightnews?? Every article on here reads like a nonstop sentence written by some 9th grader after watching 10 minutes of local news. Get some proofers and editers up in here or something.
I teach a free Self Defense class for the UCF community.
It is called Escape
You can find it on Face Book “UCF Escape Class” or by calling the UCF Police.
This is the same thing that was text to me last night from the UCF alerts.
Way to dive deeper in the story Knightnews.
