An overcrowded sedan rolled over an Ohio State University student early Wednesday morning outside his residence hall when two men jumped out to rob him at gunpoint, according to school officials.
It happened just after midnight on West 10th Avenue, according to authorities.
They described the car as a silver, gray or white four-door sedan that fled eastbound off campus.
The only description of the suspects is that they may be in their teens or early 20s.
Anyone with information about the case is asked to call campus police at 614-292-2121.
Authorities urged students to lock doors and windows and avoid walking alone, especially at night.
The brazen robbery occurred as students began the fall 2023 semester and just days after a brutal attack near another Big Ten campus – the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
“This continues to be an epidemic that is being ignored,” said Paul Mauro, a former NYPD inspector who tried to raise the alarm about campus crime last year. “All schools located in or near our deteriorating city are experiencing this.”

Madison police said a student there was hospitalized with life-threatening injuries after the 3 a.m. attack Sunday.
They told Fox News Digital Wednesday that they are making progress in the investigation and plan to announce an update at 4 p.m. CT.
Friends of the victim told WISN-TV Milwaukee that she was found with a broken jaw and had been strangled, beaten and sexually assaulted.
An unnamed neighbor said the victim was abducted from the footpath and dragged between two houses.
Anyone with information about the attack is asked to call Madison police at 608-255-2345.
Investigators are also asking anyone with security cameras near the intersection of West Wilson and South Bedford streets to share their footage from 2 to 4 a.m. Sunday.
Now, police are asking residents to avoid walking alone in the area – especially at night – and to be aware of their surroundings.
