The University of Kentucky and Lexington police have announced a joint-operations task force and an increase in patrols to combat a recent rash of robberies on and around the UK campus. UK issued its fourth crime alert within three days Thursday after campus police were notified of a robbery at 700 Woodland Avenue, in the Cooperstown area of the campus. A female student reported that a man followed her to her apartment and took about $100 at about 1:15 P.M. The victim told police that the suspect was about 5-foot-6, and was wearing a mask over his face that covered everything but his eyes. Several other robberies have occurred in recent months.
