Earlier today, a female student in Baridon Hall was injured in a domestic incident involving an individual who was known to her. Law enforcement has identified a suspect, who is no longer on campus. At this time there is no known ongoing danger to the campus community, and we believe this was an isolated incident. The student has been transported to a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
Our thoughts are with the student who was injured, her loved ones and all those affected by this incident.
Counseling and support resources are available for students, faculty and staff who may need assistance. Counseling services are available through the UCA Counseling Center at (501) 450-3138 or uca.edu/counseling.
The safety and well-being of our campus community remain our highest priorities. We appreciate the swift response of campus officials and law enforcement. Updates will be shared as appropriate through official university channels.
We ask that you support one another with care and understanding in the days ahead.
