Student reports attempted rape

IDS

From IDS reports

A female IU student was held at gunpoint by an unknown male at approximately 3 p.m. Thursday as he threatened to rape her at her apartment complex on Clarizz Boulevard. The investigation is still ongoing. The student offered to pay him to not rape her, and the suspect agreed and left after an undisclosed amount of cash was given to him by the female student. The victim, an international student at IU, said she was in her bedroom and she had come home in between classes that day. She told police that she heard her front door open and then her bedroom door as well. When she looked up, the suspect was standing over her with a silver, semi-automatic gun with a black grip. The suspect was described as a tall and thin black male wearing dark pants and a jacket, and he was using a scarf or bandanna to cover his face. The victim said he reached down, and as he grabbed her pants, she told him that she would pay him if he would not rape her. The suspect agreed, and they both went out to the living room and she paid him. Then the male suspect left the apartment. The female’s roommate left her room while the victim was searching for money to pay the suspect with and saw the end of the exchange, Bloomington Police Lt. Brad Seifers said. The report was delayed until after 4 p.m. because the victim was unaware of what to do afterwards, Seifers said. After the victim spoke to the apartment office, she called the police and reported the crime. BPD arrived and investigated but were unable to find any sign of the suspect based on the description.

Three people from Georgia were arrested Friday after purchasing nearly $7,000 worth of laptops with fraudulent credit cards at the Indiana Memorial Union, according to an IU Police Department release. Marissa Lebron, Jeremy Fortson and Nijah Hall purchased three laptops in the IMU, and employees were informed later that the purchases were believed to have been made with stolen credit card numbers. The trio then tried to make purchases at the MacExperience store on North Walnut Street, but the purchases were denied. Officers located a vehicle matching a description of the suspects’ vehicle, and the individuals were brought to IUPD for questioning. Their vehicle was searched, as was their hotel room, and police found the laptops and other items of value, according to the release. Lebron and Fortson were charged with theft. Hall was charged with theft and fraud. Nyssa Kruse

ROUND 2 TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

Donald Trump and and Hillary Clinton on stage during the second debate between the Republican and Democratic presidential candidates Sunday at Washington University in St. Louis.

Presidential nominees Clinton, Trump address issues in second debate Sunday By Melanie Metzman mmetzman@indiana.edu | @melanie_metzman

Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump took the stage and looked at each other. Clinton swung her hand out slightly toward her opponent, but Trump made no motion toward Clinton for the customary handshake. This tense interaction set the tone for the rest of the debate. Trump began with an apology to his family and the American people for the comments he made in 2005 while filming for “Access Hollywood.” He said the comments were just locker room talk. “No one has more respect for women than I do,” Trump said. However, Clinton said Trump has targeted not only women, but also Muslims, Latinos, the disabled and prisoners of war. That is not who this country is, she said. The United States is great because people respect one another, and she said this is the country she will serve if she is fortunate enough to become president.

4 main points discussed Sunday in 2nd debate The second presidential debate touched on the issues that undecided voters were most passionate about approaching the Nov. 8 election. Of these issues, these are some of the ones the candidates focused on the most.

Trump said radical Islamic terrorism is the issue, and he is dissatisfied with Clinton’s and President Obama’s refusal to use the term “radical Islamic terror.” “Before you stop it you have to say the name,” Trump said. However, Clinton said the U.S. is not at war with Islam. Instead, the country is fighting violent jihadist terrorists. Trump said he does not want to see hundreds of thousands of Syrian immigrants resettle in the U.S. because they are a risk to the nation. “We know nothing about their values, and we know nothing about their love for our country,” Trump said. Drugs are also pouring in from south of the border, he said. Clinton said people should think of the children suffering in the catastrophic war largely because of Russian aggression. She said she will increase vetting and make it as tough as it needs to be. The country cannot ban people based on religion because the country is built on reli-

gious freedom, Clinton said. Trump said Clinton has such bad judgment on refugees and immigrants that “honestly she should never be President of the United States.” Nevertheless, reigning in costs is the most important duty of the next president, Clinton said. Trump said he will eliminate Obamacare because it is a “total disaster.” “You know it, we all know it,” he said. However, Clinton said the Affordable Care Act has helped insure millions of Americans and will continue to do so. On Syria, Clinton said she does support the effort to investigate the Syrians and the Russians for war crimes. Trump said he will be a president for all people and Clinton is all talk and gets nothing done. “I want to be the president for all Americans,” Clinton said. “I want us to heal our country and bring it together.” The next and final debate will occur Oct. 19 at University of Nevada, Las Vegas.

What are appropriate and positive behaviors for today’s youth

important. William Ellis, chairman of the Monroe County Republican Party, said Trump’s commentary and behavior in the leaked 2005 video is deplorable. “People say that’s how men talk, and maybe I’m the exception to the rule, but I don’t even talk to my wife in private like that,” Ellis said. Mark Fraley, chair of the Democratic Party of Monroe County, said these

Hillary Clinton said we are going to respect one another and lift each other up, and we are going to be looking for ways to celebrate our diversity. She wanted to have an optimistic view of the country, celebrating diversity above all. Trump said he agreed with everything Clinton said, yet the country is currently in a bad place when it comes to business and trade. He also said his leaked 2005 video was just “lockerroom talk” and the threat of ISIS was more

Bloomington musicians perform at Switchyard By Katie Chrisco kchrisco@ius.edu | @katiechrisco

Although the room was small, its acoustic music resounded through the walls of Switchyard, a Bloomington-based brewpub. Local residents and musicians sat on the floor beneath hanging lights indoors or gathered around a fire outside Sunday as Chris Darby, Nathaniel Seer and Merrie Sloan performed. Folk musician Tim Baker said he is always the host of shows at the Switchyard on Sunday nights. He said it is by far the best place to play on a Sunday because the audience is so intent on listening to the performers. “It takes most musicians offguard initially because usually

you have to fight to be heard at a bar situation or really any kind of venue you’re playing at,” he said. “At the Switchyard, everyone came there to see music. Everyone came there to see you. Even if they don’t know you, they came to see you do what you do. They came to see you be you and they’re just quiet and attentive.” Before the show, Baker offered food and drinks to the audience members and invited them to sit down and relax by the fire. At the beginning of the show, he welcomed the crowd to the venue and played two of his own songs. Baker said part of the reason the audience is so attentive is the patrons are musicians.

FIELD HOCKEY

IU upsets No. 6 Northwestern for first win against ranked opponent By Juan Alvarado jdalvara@indiana.edu | @jdsports14

The Hoosiers used a stellar defensive performance this weekend to beat one of two top-15 ranked opponents they would face in the only pure home weekend of the season. IU upset No. 6 Northwestern on

Friday, 2-1, but failed to find the net in a 2-0 defeat at the hands of No. 14 Boston College on Sunday at the IU Field Hockey Complex. “To split a weekend like this is still a very great showing for our program,” IU Coach Amanda Janney said. “I think both these teams this weekend were very talented and had some extremely talented

forwards, and for our defense to limit some opportunities from some strong opponents, I think we are building and getting better every game.” The Wildcats entered their contest with the Hoosiers on Friday afternoon with 53 goals in their previous 12 games, but were unable to find much success on of-

fense in Bloomington. Sophomore goalie Noëlle Rother notched 10 saves over the course of the game, only allowing a goal a little over 22 minutes in to Northwestern freshman Lily Katzman. Katzman was by far not the Wildcats’ primary goal scorer, as forwards Isabel Flens and Dominique Masters entered the game

with 12 and nine goals this season, respectively. Freshman Ciara Girouard found the net in the first half for the Hoosiers about five minutes before Katzman would score the equalizer, and sophomore Nora Aucker would score the gameSEE IUFH, PAGE 6
