The University of Wisconsin Police Department is looking for a suspect involved in an attempted strong arm robbery and battery that occurred around 10:30 P.M. on Saturday near Memorial Library.

In a campus-wide email Sunday, UWPD said the victim flagged down officers and reported he was involved in a physical fight with three men.
