" Police Search For Man On N.C. State Campus POSTED: 6:00 pm EST December 1, 2005 UPDATED: 7:05 pm EST December 1, 2005 RALEIGH, N.C. -- Raleigh police said they are searching the woods and dorms on the campus of North Carolina State University after a man spotted outside Central Prison ran from them. Police told WRAL that they do not know why the man ran from them or whether he is dangerous. Authorities said that earlier in the day, a prison guard noticed a suspicious car, which was determined to be stolen, parked outside the prison with a man inside. Later, the man began walking down Western Boulevard toward the university. Officers said when they tried to talk to him, he ran off. The suspect was last seen running into the woods on the N.C. State campus. "There was a guy dressed pretty heavy -- like, he had a hat on and a big coat," said one witness. "And he jumped the fence and was rolling down a little embankment area. And after that, the cop jumped after him and rolled down and he took off running." Police said they were not sure if the incident was connected to the scheduled execution at Central Prison early Friday morning."

btw....that "one witness" was me. he rolled down the hill outside my dorm at wood hall next to western. if u watch wral 2nite, u will see me. my 15 seconds of fame was on at 6 and the guy said it would be on 3 or 4 more times 2nite. 11 o'clock news is a good bet

that doesn't answer my question

[Edited on December 1, 2005 at 7:47 PM. Reason : why is this newsworthy if they have no idea what going on?]

For the record, that is the least helpful witness statement ever on the first day of December and it's actually sort of cold outside.

That probably only described...let's see, about 35k people on campus daily, at least 20k are men, and I'd venture that at least 10,000 men wore coats and hats on campus today. Not to mention how fast you can sling those things off...so there were probably at least 20,000 people who could in some fashion meet that description within a mile radius today.

Why sound uptight about it? Cause I had to walk across campus, by myself, this evening less than an hour after the story posted, and over half the people I saw could have fit that description. A height, a build of body...something.
