    Quick Response, No Injuries After Incident at West Lombard and Penn Streets

    Dear UMB Community:

    Today at about 3:20 p.m., University of Maryland, Baltimore (UMB) Police responded to a report of a man waving a knife near West Lombard Street and Penn Street. When police arrived, they quickly recovered the knife and arrested the suspect. No one was hurt. Because of the quick action by our police officers and our partners at the University of Maryland Medical Center, there is no increased threat to our UMB community. Learn more about how we send public safety information. 

    I want to acknowledge that this incident could be frightening to witness. If you need support, resources are available through the Student Counseling Center and Employee Assistance Program. Our Safe Ride service is available on campus and in our surrounding neighborhoods from 7 a.m. to 1 a.m. through the Mobile UMB App and calling 410-706-6882.

    Our entire UMB Police and Public Safety team is committed to your safety. Our data-driven policing strategies placed the right officers in the right place to act swiftly. I want to thank our officers for their quick and professional response. If you ever need help, we’re here for you 24/7 by calling 410-706-6882. 

    Sincerely,

    Thomas Leone, MSL
    Assistant Vice President for Public Safety and Chief of Police
